Welcome to Functional Safety – Part 2

In this session, we will build on the concepts from Part 1 and focus on industry standards and software-level safety. We will explore the ISO 26262 standard, its relevance to our workflows, and key safety management concepts.

Topics include:

  • ISO 26262 Standard – scope, requirements, and impact on development

  • Safety Management – planning, monitoring, and reporting for safety goals

  • Product Development at the Software Level – applying safety principles in code

  • Qualification Flow for Software Tools – ensuring tool reliability

  • Methods for Determining Tool Confidence Level (TCL) – risk assessment and mitigation

By the end of this session, you will understand how functional safety principles translate into software processes and tool qualification to meet compliance requirements.
