As we move into an era where driving decisions made by artificial intelligence (AI) become more commonplace, the role semiconductors play in vehicle safety and reliability has never been more crucial. Arm technology has been designed into these critical functions with the Arm Safety Ready portfolio of IP, safety features, tools and robust methodologies to support various auto and industrial segments needing functional safety and reliability.
IP for safety-critical automotive use cases needs to provide high reliability with exceptional quality and adhere to global industry standards such as ISO 26262 and AEC Q100. To comply with these standards, each design specification demands unique PPAC (power, performance, area, cost) which will impact the chosen technology nodes, physical IP requirements and methods used for physical implementation.
Arm’s broad range of physical IP and POP IP for automotive applications deliver secure, safety-critical requirements through certified semiconductor foundry manufacturing processes. Arm Physical IP is optimized for system reliability (with respect to potential issues such as temperature and voltage spikes) and the ability to test the automotive design with sufficient coverage.
