This case study highlights the integration of virtualization into a Classic AUTOSAR platform, creating a unified workflow for real and virtual targets. By incorporating a level 3 virtual ECU, the Molex wireless charging project accelerates developer onboarding, enables local testing of AUTOSAR configurations, and reduces dependency on scarce hardware.

ECU virtualization and software-in-the-loop testing are becoming crucial in the automotive industry. OEMs are increasingly demanding virtual ECUs alongside real ones, making this the new standard for suppliers. This trend is advancing further, with new E/E architectures being developed using fully virtualized models before hardware is available. This approach decouples hardware from software, leveraging the benefits of software-defined vehicles. Elektrobit, Molex, and Synopsys have collaborated to create a fully virtualized software development and test workflow, applying the ‘Shift-left’ paradigm to enhance development speed, test coverage, and developer experience for Molex’s wireless charging platform.
