Unlocking Cortex-A53's Safety Potential

community.arm.com, Aug. 22, 2019 – 

Functional safety is becoming more critical across a range of markets and this has never been truer than in automotive systems as applications increasingly take more control of the vehicle's primary functions.

For over two decades Arm has been developing products used in automotive and functional safety applications. Initially used in braking and airbag systems, Arm IP has been more recently adopted in Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS) and autonomous driving applications to innovate and accelerate development. In parallel, the breadth and depth of Arm's products supporting functional safety has also increased, with the level of technical safety requirements feeding directly into processor development.

Arm's First Applications Processor With Software Test Library

Arm will be introducing a Software Test Library (STL) on the Cortex-A53 processor. This is the first applications processor to have self-test software provided by Arm. The availability of Arm's first Software Test Library for an applications processor, which has been widely implemented in a range of automotive systems, will assist in supporting the increasing demand for functional safety enabled solutions for this challenging market.

In 2018, Arm introduced its Safety Ready portfolio which brings together all of Arm's functional safety activities into one industry-leading program. It assists partners to achieve regulatory compliance with the provision of consistent comprehensive safety documentation developed within a rigorous process to enable shorter time to market for solutions with safety requirements. The Cortex-A53 STL will join the Safety Ready portfolio when it is released late this year.
