Description

The Vertical Adapter is designed to substitute the

device on an ECU version used during engine

calibration.

All VertiCal hardware is designed to support a

standardized tool connector, allowing a variety of

calibration and debug hardware to be connected

and reused.

VertiCal components are available to support a

wide range of SPC563M64 devices in various

package types.

The complete system consists of a

SPC563M64AVB144/176 board, a calibration

RAM board SPC56XVTOP-M and a POLYPOD-

TQ144/176 Poly-Pod which plugs directly into the

motherboard.
