Products being used within their end-product application can suffer systematic or random failures. Functional safety standards are designed to help influence the reduction of potential risks of ...

Functional safety engineers follow the ISA/IEC 61511 standard and perform calculations based on random hardware failures. These result in very low failure probabilities, which are then combined with ...

Developing functional safety systems, including all the components such as the system-on-chip (SoC) and IP, hinges on the ability to meet the stringent automotive functional safety requirements such ...

With the rapid growth in semiconductor content in today’s vehicles, IC designers need to improve their process of meeting functional safety requirements defined by the ISO 26262 standard. The ISO ...

Based on the foundational IEC 61508 standard’s essential requirements, high-performance supervisory circuits can facilitate functional-safety compliance in safety instrumented systems and other ...

A power supply unit is one of the most crucial components in an electronics system, as its operation can affect the entire system’s functionality. In the context of ...

A revolution in the auto industry is underway and the hardware that is driving it has an appetite for memory bandwidth. High-performance compute functions that run algorithms for perception, planning, ...

Designers and developers of medical devices are aware of the relevance and risks involved in single faults, which must be avoided in all states of operation. However, the dynamics of development, ...
