Re: BMW K1100RS
I do not know if there are types of knock sensors, aren't they all the same? Some early knock sensors were 'narrow band' - they generated an output signal only when knock was detected at a certain frequency. AFAIK all modern sensors are wideband - they have a flat* output response from around 20Hz ...

Re: Quality assurance for assembled boards
For a production test you only need to prove that the board is correctly assembled. I would replace the firmware with something that just reads the inputs and exercises the outputs. Connect up some simulated input signals and connect some output loads, maybe even just connect the outputs to the inpu...

Re: A little ECU interconnect schematic/drawing I made
If your goal is 0.2 degree crank angle accuracy. Is that +/- 0.1 or is that +/-0.2? If you use +/- 0.1, during your tuning you will likely push until you get an issue, then you'll back off by at least 0.2 to guarantee you are safe, then you might decrease by another 0.2 just to give you some safety...

Re: A little ECU interconnect schematic/drawing I made
I found some pictures of what I think is the OEM ECU here:
http://www.600rr.net/vb/15-general-discussion/296313-ecu-resets-dynos-etc.htm
I don't see any heavy duty load dump protection so you may have a clamping regulator or the time constant of the alternator field coil is quite short.

Re: A little ECU interconnect schematic/drawing I made
I don't want to fill the Power Supply thread with unnecessary talk. Which Honda motorcycle do you have?
Your schematic reminds me of the old Suzuki Swift ECU which used which used a separate timing processor (UPP) in the days before the integrated TPU.

At work I have to deal with 461 RE102 which goes up to 18GHz, as well as CS114, but for commercial stuff I expect CISPR 11 which ranges from about 20MHz to 1GHz. Is that a wrong standard?

LM2931. The polyfuse is only rated to 24V, the TVS is rated to 15V continuous. I actually expect the TVS to switch before it gets too high, or the transient to be short enough.

About wire EMC issues, I'll assume that we are dealing with frequencies below a couple kHz, so Standing Wave Ratio (SWR) is not a problem, and wire length is not causing RF issues due to length or propagation delays.

Re: Wreck Racing rusEfi Board
Test pulse 1 is a reverse voltage test, the voltage is -100V. Also note that Ri is separate from the resistor in the LISN and is in series with the battery voltage so the current into the ECU is limited to -2A maximum.

Re: high side and low side driver module - TC4427
The TC4427 isn't designed to drive loads, its meant to drive MOSFET gates where you need a high current for a very short time only to charge or discharge the gate capacitance. At a maximum ambient temperature of 85C the average current must be less than around 200mA to avoid overheating.

Re: Closed-loop fuel control
The Vitara FSM states that closed loop is used unless:
At engine start and during post-start enrichment
When coolant temperature is low
When highly loaded and enrichment is applied
At fuel cut
When O2 sensor is cold.
Its also disabled if there are any current fault codes.

That probably depends on the year, earlier Suzukis use just one STFT, LTFT and TFT, from something like 2003 they moved to three ranges beyond that I don't have any experience.

Re: Closed-loop fuel control
Closed loop is entered when the output from the O2 sensor has risen above a defined threshold - that indicates that it is sufficiently heated. There may be a couple of other requirements, I will check.

I think the OEM ECUs use the equivalent of a PID loop, at least the Suzuki ECUs appear to although there may well not be a D term - its a relatively slow system.
