A Validated Methodology for Designing Safe Industrial Systems on a Chip (REVISED)

by Bryon Moyer

This white paper explores an industrial system on a chip (SoC) to explain how engineers can save up to 18 months of design time in achieving industrial product certification according to IEC 61508. Altera’s Safety Integrity Level 3 (SIL3) Functional Safety Data Package, which includes a certificate for Altera tools, IP, and device data from TÜV Rheinland, shortens and simplifies development of safe applications according to IEC 61508 while efficiently addressing the needs for low-cost and highly integrated embedded systems.

Quickly and accurately identify inter-domain leakage issues in IC designs

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Power domain leakage is a major IC reliability issue, often missed by traditional tools. This white paper describes challenges of identifying leakage, types of false results, and presents Siemens EDA’s Insight Analyzer. The tool proactively finds true leakage paths, filters out false positives, and helps circuit designers quickly fix risks—enabling more robust, reliable chip designs. With detailed, context-aware analysis, designers save time and improve silicon quality.
