Powertrain Systems

Delphi Commercial and Off-Highway Vehicle Transmission Controllers are custom designed advanced electronic devices that provide excellent control for automatic transmissions used in heavy duty, medium duty and light duty on-highway trucks and off-highway vehicles. They are especially designed to function reliably in extreme temperatures and under harsh vibration conditions to help vehicles achieve optimal performance, fuel economy, and engine emissions. They improve overall throughput for quicker response for excellent efficiency and shift quality.

Delphi's heavy duty transmission controllers feature precision actuator control for system reliability. Software modifications also contribute to optimized vehicle performance and accurate tuning. Their high speed controller area network (CAN) communication systems enable multiplexing and flash programming provides in-vehicle memory updates.

Delphi's family of Commercial and Off-Highway Vehicle Transmission Controllers also feature highly developed, robust package construction and advanced electronics to provide manufacturers with dependable performance and high value for a wide range of demanding applications.

Benefits

• Delphi's controllers support today's latest 32-bit microprocessors with integrated flash memory to enable high-speed data processing
• Software can support driver device only, or up to a turn-key application to meet individual customer requirements
• Have a small package size and uses a standard FR4 circuit board enabling mounting flexibility and manufacturing flexibility
• Control for either linear or pulse width modulated (PMW) solenoids with electrical current feedback provides flexibility to support the widest possible range of solenoids currently in use
• Enable upgrades from manual to automatic transmissions without the need to replace the engine control module
• Compact, waterproof, robust construction allows packaging flexibility for mounting in the engine compartment, on the body, or on the transmission
• Can accommodate increased feature functions with additional low- and high-side driver capabilities available

Typical Applications

Delphi Commercial and Off-Highway Vehicle Transmission Controllers are suitable for 4-, 5-, and 6-speed heavy duty transmission programs for on-highway commercial trucks and off-highway vehicles, such as industrial and construction equipment. The controllers can be used with a wide range of gasoline, diesel and alternative fuel engine programs.

Performance Advantages

Delphi Commercial and Off-Highway Vehicle Transmission Controllers are custom designed to meet the customer’s specific requirements. They provide features that can help manufacturers meet demanding performance targets, higher fuel economy requirements and the most stringent emissions regulations facing next generation vehicles.

Their robust, die cast housing construction and sealed connection design make the controllers especially suitable for "work horse" vehicle programs, where performance and durability will be challenged.
