Shaping the Future of Autonomous Driving

ISO-26262 and Avoiding Hard and Soft Errors in Automotive IC

The safety-critical semiconductor products used in the Automotive Industry have to be safe from damages caused by random HW faults, both permanent and transitory, meeting the ISO-26262 standard. Here we review the main Design for Safety mechanisms that can be used to ensure design safety, discuss their relative merits, and focus on the validation (e.g., fault simulation) required to ensure the selected mechanisms have been used correctly.

Design Reliability 2.0: Safety is Everything

The world of HW & SW engineering is continually reinventing itself. This time it is about safety. As computers move out of the virtual world and begin participating in the real world (driving cars, controlling plants, controlling cities and traffic jams, etc.), the demands for safety grow dramatically. What is needed is Trustworthiness, defined as the sum of Safety, Reliability, Availability, Resilience, and Security.
