        abstract = {Electric power steering system (EPS) uses an electric motor to provide essential control to the driver. When the driver turns the steering, the control unit reads the torque sensor, which measures how much effort, the driver is applying into it and brings the electric motor into play till the effort is reduced to zero.  The vehicle runs on a brushed DC motor, powered by 12V batteries and controlled from an ECU. From the microcontroller point of view, not only must it be functionally acceptable, it must be able to withstand the harsh environment. In this project an effective pulse width modulation control strategy has been designed to adjust the motor torque and current in order to increase the availability range. The new electronic control unit has been developed using microcontroller MPC5604P which is cost effective compared to the existing microcontroller.},
