There is an ever-widening range of automotive electrical and/or electronic (E/E/PE) systems such as adaptive driver assistance systems, anti-lock braking systems, steering and airbags. Their increasing levels of integration and connectivity provide almost as many challenges as their proliferation, with non-critical systems such as entertainment systems sharing the same communications infrastructure as steering, braking and control systems. Read how the resulting need for exacting functional safety development processes is fulfilled by ISO 26262, from requirements specification, design, implementation, integration, verification, validation, and through to configuration.
