Faster data speed and more data capacity enhancements compared to standard CAN​

• Controller Area Network Flexible Data-Rate or CAN FD is an improved CAN protocol (based on CAN 2.0)​

• Support dual bit rates within a message
  • Arbitration Phase: same bit rate as standard CAN​
  • Data Phase: bit rates up to 5 Mbit/s, compared to 1 Mbit/s in standard CAN​

• Support a larger payload
  • Up to 64 bytes/message

• Model interface similar to standard CAN components​

• Available on the HIL606​

Monitor and interact with your simulation during the test run​

• HIL SCADA can now connect to a model run by an external program​

• Available through a new external operating mode​

• Especially useful during development of test scripts​
  • Use Monitoring widgets to monitor and visualize model variables while the test is running​
  • Modify model inputs on the fly using the graphical user interface​

New high-resolution model stimulation capabilities​

• New way of applying dynamic time-series model stimuli​

• Assign high-resolution time-series profiles to model inputs during simulation runtime

• Runtime signal resolution defined by the signal processing execution rate​

• Fast and simple integration of external Power amplifier devices with schematic editor model.

• New HIL API function(s):​
  • create_signal_stimulus()​​
  • prepare_signal_stimulus()​​
  • start_signal_stimulus()​
  • stop_signal_stimulus()​
  • pause_signal_stimulus()​​

Automatically reload all opened Panels or Models after changing a Library​

• Since our previous release, both Typhoon HIL Schematic Editor and HIL SCADA support the library concept. However, it was necessary to manually reload Models/Panels to update changes made in library components/widgets​

• From the 2021.4 software release, both Schematic Editor and HIL SCADA have the option to automatically update the affected models or panels after reloading libraries​

Extract data points from graphs and charts​

• Extract data from datasheet graphs and charts in the form of look-up-tables.​

• Accessible from Typhoon HIL Control Center Additional Tools​

• Extracted tables can be saved in json, csv, or python list format, which can later be used for defining various non-linear characteristics in our software​

• Useful for defining characteristics for Nonlinear inductors, voltage drop on switches and diodes, power loss calculation properties, etc.​

Utilize your full CPU power potential in your model​​

• Signal processing components can now be mapped to the System CPU​
  • • The System CPU was so far exclusively used for RMS measurement and Constant power load components​​
    • Now these components can also be mapped to user CPUs​

• This allows you to distribute SP workload more evenly across CPUs​

• Bring more CPU power to your models​
  • • Up to 50% increase in available CPU power on 4th generation devices in particular​​
