Wednesday, 27 August, 2014 | Supplied by: Future Electronics


Renesas Electronics has obtained IEC61508 (Functional Safety) certification for the RX631, RX63N Safety Package, featuring a robust self-diagnostic software and a safety manual for microcontrollers (MCUs) necessary to implement functional safety in industrial equipment.

The package includes a self-diagnostic software library and safety manual for RX631 and RX63N 32-bit MCUs. The safety manual contains the results of safety analysis performed on each internal functional block of the MCU and the self-diagnostic software library covers the CPU, RAM and flash ROM. The self-diagnostic software uses fault simulation to obtain the diagnostic yields of CPU-related diagnostics.

The self-diagnostic software library for the MCUs has been certified as compliant with IEC 61508 SIL3 by the international certification authority TÜV Rheinland of Germany. When installing the software, the user can omit the usual verification of conformance of the software development process required by the IEC 61508 standard.
