Referring to Figure 4-8, the safe state of the TMS320F280015x MCU is defined as the one in which:
- TMS320F280015x MCU Reset is asserted
- Power supply to TMS320F280015x MCU is disabled using an external supervisor as a result of Level 3 check failure. In general, a power supply failure is not considered in detail in this analysis as it is assumed that the system level functionality exists to manage this condition.
- External system is informed using one of C2000 MCU’s IO pins as a result of Level 2 check failure (for example, ERRORSTS pin is asserted).
- Output of the TMS320F280015x MCU driving the actuator is forced to inactive mode as a result of Level 2 check failure (for example, GPIO pins corresponding to the mission function is tri-stated).
