MICROPROCESSOR CONTROLS ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION

A microprocessor-based engine and transmission control system has been developed; its major characteristic is that many functions covered by hardware previously are not processed by software via a newly developed high speed microprocessor. This unit has been used with 2.0-, 2.8-, and 4.0-L gasoline engines and a 2.4-L turbocharged diesel. The same engine control unit satisfies different requirements of each engine via software modification, and uses the fewest input/output interface changes and least additional memory possible.
