Cadence
From staying up-to-date on standards to managing data, complying with functional safety requirements has been a time-consuming, manual effort. Cadence is transforming this process by automating fault injection and result analysis for IP, SoC, and system designs.
Built on the proven Cadence® Incisive® verification platform, our end-to-end functional safety solution reduces automotive ISO 26262 compliance effort by 50%. The solution is available as part of the Cadence System Development Suite.
Fulfilling the ISO 26262 traceability, safety verification, and TCL requirements, our solution includes Incisive Functional Safety Simulator and functional safety analysis capability in the Cadence vManager™ Metric-Driven Signoff Platform.
The solution delivers:
- Seamless reuse of functional and mixed-signal verification environments to accelerate the time to develop safety verification
- Support for multiple fault types, including single event upset (SEU), stuck-at-0/stuck-at-1, and single event transient
- Automatically generates a safety verification plan from the fault dictionary created by the simulator. The vManager platform can then track millions of detected, partially detected, and undetected faults introduced into simulation to verify the safety systems in a design.
- Highlights potential and undetected fault runs for further debugging
