Super Feng Electronics CEO Xie Yongda said that its products are mainly for IC packaging and testing business, IC after IC packaging and testing, mainly used in network communications, consumer electronics products, such as smart phones, wearable devices, smart appliances, Set-top boxes, automotive electronics, etc .; and into ISO 26262, the company can better understand the results of each process should be presented, and how to determine the preparation criteria for the next stage.
As there are more and more electronic systems in the car, the OEMs pay more attention to the safety of electronic products. One of the important safety considerations is functional safety. Functional safety, as the name implies, is safe and normal. Therefore, Factories, component manufacturers and semiconductor plants are beginning to demand the supply chain must meet the functional safety standards, and management systems, development processes, product safety technology began to import.
Zhang Tingwei, Project Manager of Industrial Service Department of Rhine, Germany, pointed out that as long as the quality of general products is good, enterprises can understand the risks posed by different scenarios after the introduction of ISO 26262, which is the shift from quality point of view to safety point of view thinking.
For example, if an EV battery is in poor condition, it is like a time bomb that can be validated and tested in the development process if it complies with functional safety standards in response to a battery's reaction at high or low temperatures, Battery management system with stop charging and discharging and related protection, to avoid driving accidents are the scope of functional safety.
In other words, a clear product usage environment and situation settings not only contribute to risk assessment, but also help product developers to proactively assess which aspects of their processes should be specially enhanced or rigorously tested to enhance product safety and reliability. At present, related companies such as auto electronics related OEMs, system and component suppliers, software and hardware component suppliers, etc. are aware of the importance of functional safety
In addition, another challenge to enter the car industry is the new version of IATF 16949: 2016, which requires that embedded software be evaluated, except ISO 26262. Manufacturers often require manufacturers to comply with A-SPICE (Automotive Software Process Improvement and Capability Measurement), it is worth car electronic components industry attention.
