Set up and configure Virtual ECU
winIDEA supports a wide range of virtual ECUs (vECUs), enabling the same advanced debugging and analysis features you’d expect when working with physical hardware. This is especially useful in the early stages of development -long before the target ECU or SoC is available—allowing teams to test, debug, and iterate without delay.
Whether you're running on silicon or simulation, one tool for both physical and virtual ECUs means your workflows stay consistent across the entire development lifecycle.
For more information about the supported vECUs, refer to Virtual ECUs.
These topics provide practical how-tos for using virtual ECUs with winIDEA:
