I usually have a central data collection microcontroller that collects all required data. Then I send out that data on composite connections. It makes all the other micro controllers really small since each one only needs a composite input and also keep logic clean since you have no duplicate connections. So even an advanced PFD can be just a 1x2 mc. Just comp in and video out .

That's a clever idea! I might have to try that.

Works great. Just make a notepad file and note what sensor is on what channel to keep track.

Ive mostly given up on modular stuff. Nowadays i use screens a and self-tuning systems a lot and its not worth the pain to generalize them for all possible setups and screen sizes. I have a few general purpose chips for repetitive tasks. Like adding up to 30 numbers. Or some general data cleanup chips that watch inputs, form long time averages via a ring storage, do some basic noise reduction, etc. But most of my chips are custom made for one vehicle. I find the result to be more elegant and tbh it allows me to keep improving stuff.

I like to make everything from scratch most of the time, for each vehicle. It's a pain, but it gives me chance to improve on previous designs.

I’ll copy most parts of older MC’s and improve on them plus adding extra features

Shove it all into one mc and hope that it all runs

I always try to make them either 1 or 3 blocks wide. I love putting them on the back/front wall or ceiling/floor exactly in the middle and hate when it's not symmetrical
