TI has tailored the functional safety lifecycles of ISO 26262 and IEC 61508 to best match the needs of a functional Safety Element out of Context (SEooC) development. The functional safety standards are written in the context of the functional safety systems, which means that some requirements only apply at the system level. Since TI functional safety components are hardware or software components, TI has tailored the functional safety activities to create new product development processes for hardware and for software that makes sure state-of-the-art techniques and measures are applied as appropriate. These new product development processes have been certified by third-party functional safety experts. To find these certifications, go to TI.com/functionalsafety.
