MCU development toolchain aids IEC 61508 compliance
IAR Systems and Renesas Electronics Europe have teamed up to offer a development toolchain for Renesas’ 32-bit RX microcontroller platform that facilitates compliance with the international umbrella standard for functional safety IEC 61508. The build chain of IAR Embedded Workbench for RX has been tested and approved according to the requirements on support tools put forth in IEC 61508, as well as the standard for automotive safety-related systems ISO 26262.
The quality assurance measures applied by IAR Systems and the included Safety Manual allow application developers to use IAR Embedded Workbench for RX in safety-related software development for each Safety Integrity Level (SIL) according to IEC 61508 and each Automotive Safety Integrity Level (ASIL) of ISO 26262 without further tool qualification. IAR Embedded Workbench for RX is certified by TÜV SÜD.
"We are glad to be teaming up with IAR Systems as a software alliance partner for the leading embedded development toolchain IAR Embedded Workbench for RX,” says Niels Trapp, Senior Manager at Renesas Electronics Europe. “The certified tool suite helps our customers during the certification process and efficiently supports our RX microcontrollers for safety applications.”
“We have supported customers in different industries developing safety-related functionality for many years, and together with Renesas we now take the offer to the next level,” comments Anders Holmberg, Product Manager for Functional Safety, IAR Systems. “The certified toolchain and the exhaustive functional safety support agreement that comes with it will simplify the certification process for developers of industrial automation systems and ensure their tools investment is protected through the entire product life cycle.”
