5 Safety Features on TI Sitara AM62x Processor

To target ASIL-B automotive applications, AM62x offers several on-chip diagnostic features, including freedom from interference features. Figure 5-1 shows the various safety features present on the device. More details on the device safety features and diagnostics, systematic safety development process and recommendations of software diagnostic mechanisms are available in the device safety manual.

Note:

Assumptions of Use When Using the AM62x

The AM62x is developed as Safety Element Out of Context following ISO 26262-10. Assumptions of Use (AoU) are therefore needed to place requirements on external components such as external power supply, voltage monitoring device and responsibilities on the system integrator. A comprehensive list of all AoU are available in the device safety manual.
