Altera announced the availability of the latest version of the Industrial Functional Safety Data Package (Ver. 3) for system designers using Altera's field programmable gate array (FPGA). The security package provides TüVRheinland-certified tool flows, IP, and devices including Cyclone V FPGAs, which speeds time to market for industrial security solutions from IEC 61508 up to Safety Integrity Level 3 (SIL3) on the market.
According to industrial safety requirements, industrial equipment must be certified to ensure that electrical, electronic or programmable electronic systems performing safety functions comply with industry standard safety guidelines. Generally, such products must meet the requirements of IEC 61508 for safety integrity level 3 (SIL 3) and ISO 13849 for performance level category 4 (PL e Cat 4).
In addition, as the complexity of security designs increases, the need to provide advanced security features and integrate security functions with applications has led to the need for advanced certification tool flows, such as the latest version of the Altera Secure Design Partitioning Tool Flow. Contents of a functional safety packet. This zoning tool flow enables designers to separate the secure and non-secure parts of the design, allowing users to update the non-secure parts with minimal security recertification efforts.
"Without a certified tool flow (as provided by Altera's security software package), customers will be challenged to certify the tool and the device itself, which requires them to use older versions of the tool and subsequently, performance Weaker technology, "said Roger May of the system. Architect and Functional Safety Leader, Altera Industrial Business Unit, "With the release of our third-generation functional safety data package, customers can continue to be assured of using Altera's latest equipment and tool flows to address what they are doing today when designing safety systems Challenges encountered.
