A2l files describe measurement variables and tunable parameters of an embedded device (typically: an automotive ECU).
The consumer of the a2l file typically allows online calibraction over a protocol such as XCP and/or offline tuning by generating flashable parameter sets. There are several commercial tools for this purpose.
The a2l file format is specified by ASAM and is formally called ASAM MCD-2 MC.
