Benefits

High-Performance Injection for Flexible HiL Scenarios

The SDBI Station operates as a standalone player for continuous data replay or as a simulation-integrated injection device. Remote functions, automation, and an open API support rapid integration into existing frameworks and validation pipelines.

Data Center Performance

SmartNIC, RDMA, and PCIe technology deliver high bandwidth and ultra-low latency.

Replay & Inject

Standalone and slave operation support continuous replay and simulation-based data injection.

Flexibly Configurable

SerDes, CAN(FD), Automotive Ethernet, and customer-specific extensions.

Reusable

Reuse existing simulation hardware and software across applications and projects.

Operating Modes

One System for Replay and Simulation-Integrated Injection

Standalone Player

The SDBI Station autonomously and continuously replays configured input data. Results can be recorded automatically and transferred locally or to connected data environments.

  • continuous raw data replay
  • automated HiL test runs
  • remote diagnostics and configuration

Simulation Integrated Inject Device

The open API integrates the SDBI Station into existing simulation frameworks, where the system handles real-time injection of synchronized data streams into the DUT.

  • open- and closed-loop operation
  • multiple simulation feeds simultaneously
  • sample code for rapid integration
System Architecture

Connecting Simulation, Data Center Infrastructure, and the DUT

The SDBI Station connects the simulation and compute environment to the device under test via high-speed Ethernet and RDMA. SerDes outputs transfer the data to the DUT, and the DUT response can then be visualized and evaluated.
