Achieving Automotive Functional Safety Compliance with ISO 26262 Certified Solido Custom IC Solutions

As the automotive industry rapidly evolves, with the rise of autonomous driving, electrification, and advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), the need for robust functional safety solutions has become paramount. Achieving compliance with the ISO 26262 functional safety standard is a critical requirement for any automotive electronic system. Siemens’ Solido Custom IC platform offers ISO 26262 certified design and verification tools that enable automotive manufacturers and suppliers to seamlessly integrate functional safety into their custom integrated circuit (IC) development process.
The Solido Custom IC platform includes tools like the Solido Design Environment, Solido Simulation Suite, and Solido Crosscheck (part of Solido IP Validation Suite), which are certified to the ISO 26262 standard. These solutions leverage advanced techniques such as high-sigma verification, accurate long-term aging and reliability assessment, and transistor-level defect simulation to ensure that automotive ICs can maintain parts-per-billion failure rates over decades of operation. By integrating Solido’s certified tools, automotive companies can accelerate their time-to-market, reduce development costs, and have confidence that their custom ICs will meet the latest functional safety regulations.

Solido automotive solutions provide a comprehensive framework for addressing the functional safety requirements of automotive electronic systems. From design and simulation to verification and validation, Solido’s ISO 26262 certified tools enable automotive manufacturers and suppliers to seamlessly integrate functional safety into their custom IC development process. This, in turn, helps to enhance the overall safety and reliability of the vehicles, ultimately benefiting both manufacturers and end-users.
