Safety and Reliability Options for mission-critical applications
Essential safety and reliability for automotive and enterprise computing
Safety and reliability are critical considerations across automotive and enterprise applications, where the safety and integrity of systems are mission-critical. Arteris offers several safety and reliability options that help designers meet industry standards and regulations, while providing the peace of mind that their systems adhere to the highest safety integrity levels.
These options include:
- FlexGen®, FlexNoC®, and FlexWay™ Functional Safety (FuSa) Option
- FlexNoC Reliability Option for Industrial Applications
- FlexNoc Reliability Option for Enterprise Applications
Where long-term performance and reliability are paramount, choosing a suitable network-on-chip (NoC) helps safeguard integrated circuits against wear and tear, adverse environmental conditions, and other threats to sustained performance. The comprehensive Arteris suite of safety and reliability features is tailored to address these demands.
Advantages
Next-gen protection from core safety to data integrity
Enhanced safety and reliability
Integrate hardware reliability and functional safety features to help achieve compliance with ISO 26262 and IEC 61508 standards, which are crucial for sectors such as automotive and enterprise computing, particularly in applications with SSD endurance requirements.
Hardware-centric approach
FlexNoC options drive high-performance on-chip data flow and access to off-chip memory by enabling multi-channel HBM2 memory and high-bandwidth data paths.
Comprehensive data protection
Ensure data traffic protection throughout the chip floorplan with error-correcting code (ECC), support for Arm Cortex processors, built-in self-tests, and unit redundancy.
Safety and Reliability Options key features
- ECC interface and transport: Detects/corrects errors for data integrity.
- Packet consistency checkers verify the consistency of data packets during transmission.
- Unit duplication enables fault detection through SoC design redundancy.
- Initiator timeout: Detects non-responsive initiators, preventing failures.
- FMEDA generation: Analyzes failure modes & implements countermeasures.
- Fault reporting BIST: Detects system faults for accurate issue identification.
- Easy partitioning of any SoC into safe and non-safe domains.
