Potential 32-bit MegaSquirt?
Posted: Wed Jun 08, 2011 5:07 am
Hi folks.
Let me introduce myself. I am Mike Garrard from Freescale Semiconductors, the makers of S08 and S12 CPUs. I am looking forward to contributing on here as I have been a follower since diy-efi days. I have a potential 32-bit floating point ‘MegaSquirt Qorivva 4’ ECU in the planning stage, in co-operation with Bruce Bowling and Al Grippo of course, but like all companies I have to justify my time and resources. I need your help. Please have a look at the plans and diagrams at the link below and if you like the proposals post a comment on the Freescale blog.

The more noise I can create on the Freescale site, the easier it is for me to get budget and raise the priority of this compared to the other things my hierarchy wants me to do. And TBH this is a project I'd really like to do as it seems like a lot of fun. If you have questions, then also post them on the freescale blog as the system sends me an email to which I can respond directly. Looking forward hopefully to meeting you at the next Megameet with a box of ECUs, maybe presenting at some engineering sessions on ECU circuits, microcontrollers, crank position sensing, knock processing or even talking about EDIS (another of mine from a previous career).
Good luck with your projects!
