Bosch D-PDU API Virtual VCI DoIP 5.52

Bosch D-PDU API Virtual VCI DoIP is a software-only vehicle communication interface from Bosch Automotive Service Solutions. It presents a standards-compliant ASAM D‑PDU API to diagnostic applications and transports all traffic via Diagnostics over IP (DoIP, ISO 13400) over standard Ethernet. This allows engineering and service tools that already use the D‑PDU API to communicate directly with DoIP-capable vehicles and ECUs without requiring dedicated VCI hardware, while maintaining a consistent interface alongside Bosch’s physical VCIs.

Key capabilities:

• Standards compliance: ASAM D‑PDU API, DoIP (ISO 13400), and UDS on IP. Supports ECU discovery, vehicle identification, routing activation, and both physical and functional addressing.
• Simple integration: Installs as a D‑PDU API driver that appears as a virtual VCI; works with existing D‑PDU client applications.
• Network flexibility: Uses the PC’s Ethernet interface; selectable network adapter and configurable discovery/connection behavior.
• Diagnostics and programming: Suitable for service, engineering, and flashing workflows, with configurable timing and data-transfer parameters.
• Trace and troubleshooting: Optional PDU and DoIP message logging to aid debugging and support.
• Security pass-through: Supports application- and ECU-defined security access mechanisms.

Typical requirements:

• Windows 10/11 (64-bit), administrator rights for installation
• PC with Ethernet connectivity to the vehicle or test bench
• A diagnostic application that uses the ASAM D‑PDU API
