  • CONTROL UNIT FOR A VEHICLE
    Publication number: 20200029472
    Abstract: A control device (SG) for a vehicle is proposed, which contains at least one electronic component (GPU). Furthermore, there is at least one fan (F1), and one air channel (LK), which enables air to flow (LS) from a first side of the at least one electronic component (GPU) to the first fan (F1), wherein the air flow (LS) then flows past a second side of the at least one electronic component (GPU) after passing through the first fan.

  • Control device
    Publication number: 20050154475
    Abstract: A control device for controlling a system having a processor for executing control programs, memory means for storing data and control programs, and interface modules which can be used to transfer control instructions to actuators or to further control devices is connected to other control devices by means of a data bus. The control device includes a plurality of cells of the same type, each of which has a piece of reconfigurable hardware and peripheral modules. These cells can be reconfigured by configuration data, so that hardware connections for each cell can be adjusted to adapt to a desired control process. One or more cells together form a processor and/or interface modules.
