The TCU includes an integrated Network Access Device (NAD) that is also designed and produced by Continental. The TCU will be installed as a vehicle mounted wireless devices into Subaru vehicles during the OEM’s factory assembly process and will not be accessible without use of special tools. The TCU functionalities are accomplished by 2G/3G/4G technologies (Voice & Data) and defined service feature. The TCU comprises of the following subsystem components: - Power supply - Vehicle micro-controller (VuC) - Network Access Device (NAD) - Vehicle interface / communications - Battery 1.3 Power and Grounding The TCU is designed to operate via an unfiltered 5 A fused input from the vehicle battery: Vbatt Ground return is through a single ground pin: GND 1.3.1 Power and Grounding Operating voltage range is provided in the following table. Table 3.1.1 TCU Operating Voltage Conditions Voltage Range (Vdc) Subsystem Operating Conditions 9.0 < V BATT < 16.0 Normal operation. TCU is fully functional The VBATT connection (pin 17) shall support up to 2.5A current draw with 4.5A peaks. Vehicle wire gauge must be chosen to support this current load with less than 0.5V drop between battery terminal and this pin. 1.3.1.1 VBatt values out of normal range The threshold voltage transition from Vehicle Battery to Backup Battery: If the VBATT voltage transitions downward from >8.6V to <7.3V and BUB voltage is >2.0V, the DCM shall begin using the BUB as a power source (i.e. switch to BUB), or, if no BUB is present, become UNPOWERED. The threshold voltage transition from Backup Battery to Vehicle Battery: If the VBATT voltage transitions upward from <7.7V to >9.0V AND BUB voltage > 2.0V, the DCM shall begin using the VBATT as a power source (i.e. switch to +B). The DCM shall continue to be OPERATING ON VBATT until the conditions of DCM_02552 or DCM_00031 are met. 1.3.2 Backup Battery (BUB) BUB refers to the Back-up Battery installed in the DCM; the DCM is shipped to Subaru with a BUB installed. This battery can be used to power the DCM if the main vehicle battery is lost. The BUB has no effect on DCM feature operation when DCM is running on MAIN BATTERY, i.e. when MAIN BATTERY is at least 7V. The BUB used on the DCM has the following characteristics Technology: LiFePO4 (Lithium-Iron) Rated Capacity: 1100mAh Nominal Voltage: 3.2V Temperature: Charge 0 to 45C, Discharge -30 to 60C. Charging Voltage (Max): 3.81V Minimum End of Discharge Voltage: 2.0V Protection Circuit R…
