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 ...

To a machine designer, “stay safe” is not just a cheerful slogan or wishful thinking. Operator safety is a central design issue. The international standard, ISO 12100:2010 Safety of machinery – ...

Functional safety standards are designed to help influence the reduction of potential risks of physical injury to people and property damage due to product failures within the end product application ...

UL's Functional Safety Certificate program covers products that are evaluated for functional safety only, without UL Listing. The 3-Year Functional Safety Certificate means that UL has evaluated a ...

When Michael Miller, business development manager for safety business at Rockwell Automation, explains what functional safety is, he drills the idea into his audience. “An excellent example of how ...

As the first generation of electric vehicles starts to retire en masse, their used batteries—which still have life in them—represent a largely untapped resource. EV battery storage systems can be ...

Increasing reliance on digital electronics and software in new vehicles requires a new generation of reliable memory that complies with strict functional-safety and security standards.
