IEBus (Inter Equipment Bus) is a communication bus specification "between equipments within a vehicle or a chassis" of Renesas Electronics. It defines OSI model layer 1 and layer 2 specification. IEBus is mainly used for car audio and car navigations, which established de facto standard in Japan, though SAE J1850 is major in United States.[1]
IEBus is also used in some vending machines, which major customer is Fuji Electric.[2]: 244(42)  Each button on the vending machine has an IEBus ID, i.e. has a controller.
Detailed specification is disclosed to licensees only, but protocol analyzers are provided from some test equipment vendors.[3] Its modulation method is PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation) with 6.00 MHz base clock originally, but most of automotive customers use 6.291 MHz, and physical layer is a pair of differential signalling harness. Its physical layer adopts half-duplex, asynchronous, and multi-master communication with carrier-sense multiple access with collision detection (CSMA/CD) for medium access control.[4]: 7  It allows for up to fifty units on one bus over a maximum length of 150 meters.[4]: 7  Two differential signalling lines are used with Bus+ / Bus− naming,[4]: 5  sometimes labeled as Data(+) / Data(−).

It is sometimes described as "IE-BUS", "IE-Bus," or "IE Bus," but these are incorrect. In formal, it is "IEBus." IEBus® and Inter Equipment Bus® are registered trademark symbols of Renesas Electronics Corporation, formerly NEC Electronics Corporation, (JPO: Reg. No.2552418[5] and 2552419,[6] respectively).

History

In the middle of '80s, semiconductor unit of NEC Corporation, currently Renesas Electronics, started the study for increasing demands for automotive audio systems.[7] IEBus is introduced as a solution for the distributed control system.[8]: 18 

In the late 1980s, several similar specifications, including the Domestic Digital Bus (D2B), the Japanese Home Bus (HBS),[9][10][11] and the European Home System (EHS) are proposed by different companies or organizations. These were once discussed as IEC 61030,[12] but it was withdrawn in 2006. IEBus is also a similar specification (refer to "Transfer signal format" section), but not listed in these criteria. As the result, IEBus becomes a de facto standard of car audio in Japan.[citation needed]
Regarding the Domestic Digital Bus (D2B), it is re-defined as D2B Optical by Mercedes-Benz independently.
As for Japanese Home Bus System (HBS), it is defined in 1988 as Home Bus System Standard Specification, ET-2101 by JEITA and REEA (Radio Engineering & Electronics Assiation) in Japan. It is being used by several Japanese air conditioner manufacturers (for example, M-Net from Mitsubishi[13] and the P1/P2 or F1/F2 bus from Daikin[14][15]). Fujitsu provided HBPC (Home Bus Protocol Controller) chip as MB86046B.[11] But it is unclear whether Fujitsu (currently, Cypress) still manufactures this HBPC LSI as of 2018. Mitsumi Electric provides the MM1007 and MM1192 driver ICs for HBS. The HBS specification is also discussed in the Echonet Consortium.[16][17][18][19][20] In 2014, a utility model patent for protocol converter from HBS to RS-485 is granted in China as "CN204006496U." [21]

Regarding the replacement of IEBus, a paper by Hyundai Autonet, currently Hyundai Mobis,[22] describes as follows. "In communication methods for digital input capable amplifiers, Inter Equipment Bus (IEBus) was used in early times, but for now, Controller Area Network (CAN) is mainly used."[23]

Protocol overview

A paper cup soft drink vending machine utilizing IEBus

A master talks to a slave. Each unit has a master and a slave address register. Only one device can talk on the bus at any given time. There is a pecking order for the types of communications which will take precedence over another. Each communication from master to slave must be replied to by the slave going back to the master with acknowledge bits each of those show ACK or NAK.[4]: 10  If the master does not receive the ACK within a predefined time allowance for a mode, it drops the communication and returns to its standby (listen) mode.

Detailed specification of OSI model layer 2 is disclosed to licensees only, but protocol analyzers are provided from some test equipment vendors.[3][24] In 2012, one of Chinese manufacturer's patent is granted as "CN202841169U".[25]

An open-source software emulator called "IEBus Studio" exists on a repository of SourceForge, but the last update was on 2008-02-24.[26][27] Another open-source analyzer software called "IEBusAnalyzer" is available on GitHub repository.[28] Some hobbyist made some tools also.[29]

  • Communication system
Half-duplex asynchronous communication
  • Multi-master system
All the units connected to the IEBus can transfer data to the other units.
  • Broadcast communication function (communication between one unit and multiple units)
Normally, communication is individually carried out from one unit to another. By using the broadcast communication function, however, communication can be executed from one unit to plural units as follows:
  • Group broadcast communication: Broadcast communication to group units
  • Simultaneous broadcast communication: Broadcast communication to all units
  • Effective transmission rate
The effective transmission rate can be selected from the following three communication modes:
Mixture of the plural of modes in the same bus line is not allowed.
Correct communication between different base clock is not possible.

Bit format

Each IEBus bit consists of four periods.[30]: 435 

  • Preparation period: The first or subsequent low-level (logic "1") period
  • Synchronization period: Next high-level (logic "0") period
  • Data period: Period indicating value of bit; ether low-level (logic "1") or high-level (logic "0")
  • Stop period: The last low-level (logic "1") period
  • Synchronization is done by each bit.
  • Time lengths of the synchronization period and data period are almost the same.
  • The time of the entire bits' and each bit's specification, related to the time of each period allocated to it, differ depending both on the type of the transmit bit and on whether the unit is the master or a slave unit.

Automotive manufacturers using IEBus

A wire harness for a car audio headunit

Each manufacturer has its own name, but it is not an alias of IEBus. Those are specifications of wire harness which comprise control cables based on IEBus, OSI model layer 3 and above communication protocol, audio cables, interconnection couplers, and so on.

Pioneer

Pioneer Corporation employed IEBus for its original branded car audio in early '90s. In its earlier stage, it was used just for control bus between the head unit in dashboard and the CD changer usually placed in trunk room. Nowadays, the specification includes connection between head units, navigation systems, rear speaker systems, and so on.

Toyota

Pioneer Corporation pushed Toyota Motor Corporation to adopt IEBus as the genuine parts. In 1994, Toyota decided to employ IEBus for its genuine specification,[34] but it is slightly different from that of Pioneer. It is named as AVC-LAN.

Honda/Acura

Pioneer Corporation also pushed Honda Motor. Honda also decided to adopt IEBus as its genuine parts specification just after Toyota do so.

Sirius XM Satellite Radio

Sirius XM Satellite Radio is a satellite broadcasting radio operator in US. Its digital media receiver equipment utilizes IEBus.[43]

Evaluation boards

SAKURA board

GR-SAKUKRA board and GR-SAKURA-FULL board[44] are Renesas official promotion boards of RX63N chip, which enables IEBus mode 0 and 1, but not mode 2, i.e. not available for Toyota AVC-LAN. They are an Arduino pin compatible low-price ones, suitable for hobbyists. Their color of printed circuit board is SAKURA in Japanese, which means cherry blossom. To evaluate IEBus, an external 5V bus interface transceiver (driver/receiver) IC extension is required. The transceiver needs to correspond to 3.3V microcontroller (TTL logic voltage level) interface, otherwise 3.3V ↔ 5.0V level shifter is required. Dedicated terminals of RX63N chip themselves are 5V tolerant. For further information, refer to external links.

IEBus IP core

Semiconductor intellectual property core of IEBus is available via IP core Exchange.[45]

IEBus-enabled ICs

Most of IEBus controller LSIs require external dedicated bus interface transceivers (driver/receiver ICs). In its earlier stage, bus interface transceiver is included in the device, but it raised some restrictions to users.[46] As is described in Pioneer's paper, external bus interface transceiver seems much stable.[32] Some people tried to use TI's SN75176B for this purpose, but the result seems not to be reported.[47]

Each IEBus controller may have different implementation as long as the specification can be kept. As the result, host CPU load for each IEBus controller implementation differs.

Nowadays, there are thousands of microcontroller products to be list up, those which incorporate various different IEBus controller implementations. The following list is historically notable example.

  • AcuraZine.com Forums - (dead thread) Some results in recording data from the IEBus in an Acura TSX.
  • Marcin's Site - This site is great for learning more about the IEBus! He has really done a great job researching this protocol as well as developing one of the first boards that can talk on the bus using an ATMEGA8. (there are active forums on his site too, here).
  • Louis Frigon (SigmaObjects.com) - A great write-up with schematics and source code that interfaces with the IEBus to trick the stock head unit into enabling aux input as it would for a CD changer. It is a great learning tool for how the IEBus protocol works just by looking through the well commented firmware source code. (Adapted from work done by Marcin at his site).
