Decomposition of Requirements into Development Processes

An ISO 26262 Automotive Semiconductor Safety Primer

Understanding the implications of the ISO 26262 standard on electronic systems development

The ISO 26262 Automotive Safety Standard provides critical guidance on the development of electronic hardware with a tolerable level of risk for modern electric and autonomous vehicles. However, the standard, and derivative works tend to be filled with jargon, acronyms, and preconceived knowledge requirements that make understanding the subject difficult and time consuming. This paper attempts to provide a clear, concise description of the key elements of the standard for developers, such that a working knowledge of its methodology requirements may be achieved.

Permanent and Transient Faults in an Electronic Semiconductor

The Transformational Acceleration of Automotive Safety Analysis

New Tools and Approaches for Achieving Comprehensive, Timely ISO 26262 Fault Analysis

Current ISO 26262 fault analysis methodologies are hampered by outdated technology platforms, far too slow and onerous given today’s tight project schedules. Three month plus certification processes have no place in modern automotive semiconductor projects under extreme time-to-market pressure. A next-generation suite of technologies and associated streamlined methodologies are becoming available and these promise transformational change to automotive electronic projects. These are arriving just in time given the electronic processing requirements for emerging driverless vehicles.

IC-Security Verification of Fault-Injection Side-Channel Attack in Semiconductors

Semiconductor security has become a significant concern in chip design, as more security-critical applications have arisen. Examples include the protection of safety critical (e.g. automotive) devices from malicious control takeover, revealing secrets defense related devices, accessing un-encrypted keys and other assets in smart-card chips, mining private data, chip-counterfeiting and even hacking into election machines. According to a recent study by Siemens EDA, and Wilson Research Group, 54% of ASIC/IC projects are implementing hardware security features that require verification.
