functional safety

The functional safety tag on WindowsForum.com covers the exchange and management of safety data in semiconductor and electronic system design. Recent discussions highlight Accellera's Functional Safety Language 1.0 draft, which proposes a vendor-neutral format for sharing FMEDA data across industries like automotive, industrial, medical, and aerospace. The tag addresses challenges with safety evidence currently stored in spreadsheets, custom scripts, and proprietary databases, and the need for standardized formats to improve interoperability in EDA tools. Content focuses on engineering workflows, verification results, and the movement of safety analyses across chip and IP designs, relevant to professionals in hardware and systems engineering.
