Engine Control Unit MS 6.4 EVO
Overview
The MS 6.4 EVO engine control unit manages gasoline engines up to 12 cylinders. As a member of the MS 6 family, it features a powerful digital processing core with floating-point arithmetic and a high-end FPGA for ultimate performance and flexibility. The MS 6 family utilizes a new software development process based on MATLAB/Simulink, significantly speeding up algorithm development through automatic code and documentation generation. Custom functions can be quickly and easily generated. The flexible hardware design allows the MS 6.4 EVO to support complex or unusual engine or chassis configurations.
