Engine Control Unit (ECU) provides control of actuators on an internal combustion engine to ensure optimal engine performance. It reads values from a multitude of sensors, interprets the data using multidimensional performance maps (called lookup tables), and adjusts the engine actuators for best performance. Before ECUs, air-fuel mixture, fuel injection timing, and idle speed were mechanically set and dynamically controlled by mechanical means.
