Safety-Aware Solution for Automotive
Automate the design and verification of your functional safety SoCs with Synopsys’ comprehensive Safety-Aware Solution. The Safety-Aware Solution helps to make your automotive SoC design highly predictable so that you can reach your chip’s target Automotive Safety Integrity Level (ASIL).
Why Use a Safety-Aware Solution for SoC Design?
With the rapid shift to ADAS and autonomous driving, carmakers are transitioning to a more centralized domain architecture with central compute. Autonomous driving compute solutions will become more centralized within SoCs to rapidly fuse multimodal sensor data and safely choose and initiate self-driving actions. The SoC manages every aspect of its domain and helps to ensure safe and secure operation. To design SoCs that meet these requirements, system architects integrate automotive-grade IP and ISO 26262-certified safety-aware test, design implementation, and hardware verification solutions while consulting with automotive SoC experts. Selection of design flows and IP can simplify meeting your functional safety objectives and achieving power-performance-area (PPA) targets.
