Microchip simplifica projetos automotivos com controladores de sinal digital em conformidade com ISO 26262

Microchip Simplifies Automotive Designs with ISO 26262 Compliant Digital Signal Controllers

OEMs are facing increasing application complexity and the need for safe, functional safety-compliant AUTOSAR, ISO 26262 solutions as the electric and autonomous vehicle market develops.

For automotive developers looking to design scalable applications for future technology while meeting the latest automotive requirements, Microchip Technology announced a comprehensive ecosystem around AUTOSAR-ready dsPIC33C digital signal controllers (DSCs) to enable the accelerated development and a high level of system optimization, reducing the total cost of the system.

Microchip is expanding its broad portfolio of dsPIC33C DSCs to cover the large memory segment with the new ISO 26262 compliant dsPIC33CK1024MP7xx family. This new family of dsPIC33C DSCs with 1 MB Flash enables applications running automotive software such as AUTOSAR, OS, MCAL drivers , ISO 26262 functional safety diagnostics and safety libraries.

The dsPIC33 family of DSCs also includes a high-performance central processing unit (CPU) with deterministic response and specialized peripherals for general automotive, advanced sensing and control, digital power, and engine control applications.

“The AUTOSAR-ready dsPIC33C DSCs enable designers to achieve a high level of system optimization by implementing AUTOSAR-based applications, safety functional goals, and safety use cases on a single microcontroller while meeting robust requirements of automotive applications,” said Joe Thomsen, vVP of Microchip Technology’s MCU16 business unit. “This opens up a world of opportunities for designers looking to work with Microchip as they expand into electric mobility and advanced sensing and control applications.”

The benefit of adopting AUTOSAR-ready devices like this is that customers can improve risk and complexity management while decreasing development time through reuse.

Customers who previously designed bare metal or non-AUTOSAR automotive applications and are now adopting AUTOSAR can expand by remaining in the dsPIC33C DSC ecosystem and continuing to take advantage of Microchip's value-added solutions, customer support, and product advantages with the new AUTOSAR- dsPIC33C DSCs ready. The AUTOSAR ecosystem for dsPIC33C DSCs includes Vector's MICROSAR Classic, KPIT Technologies' KSAR OS, and Microchip's ASPICE and ASIL B compatible MCAL drivers.

“We work with our partners to offer an integrated solution to simplify development for automotive OEMs and Tier 1s,” said Matthias Kaestner, vice president of Microchip’s automotive products business unit. “The integrated solution provides insights into AUTOSAR-based development. It simplifies the evaluation of an ECU design using AUTOSAR 4.3.x and allows customers to quickly become familiar with systems based on AUTOSAR-ready dsPIC33 DSCs.”

Microchip has expanded its functional safety packages that include FMEDA reports, safety manuals, and diagnostic libraries to cover ISO 26262 compliant dsPIC33CK1024MP7xx DSCs. These AUTOSAR-ready dsPIC33C DSCs, used in conjunction with safety integrated circuits ( ICs) TA100 CryptoAutomotive ™ from Microchip, enable the implementation of robust security in automotive designs.
