STM32 port on CANopen Safety stack - ISIT
ISIT
Toulouse February 13, 2020: ISIT offers with ISIT-COSAFE the only certifiable CANopen Safety battery on the market, and announces its availability on the STM32 family from STMicroelectronics.
Developed from a blank sheet of paper, ISIT-COSAFE allows faster design of critical applications requiring industrial type 61508 certification, up to the highest SIL3 level. This stack is the only one available on the market as a COTS (Off The Shelf) product and allowing secure management of the CANopen protocol.
More and more industrial applications based on the CANopen communication protocol are found in high-risk environments, and therefore become critical in terms of operating safety: this may be the case for example with autonomous robots, sensors or communicating systems. They must therefore comply with the IEC61508 software certification standard for industrial systems with a SIL level depending on the criticality of the application. By using the ISIT-COSAFE CANopen stack in their system, designers benefit from certification credits for communicating with the CANopen protocol, and can therefore focus on developing and certifying their own application, saving valuable time and money. significant cost.
Porting to the range of STM32 microcontrollers broadens the target of uses, this family being dedicated to industrial applications.
"By relying on its dual expertise in industrial networks and on-board real-time, ISIT offers a unique and high-performance product" said Thierry Le Gall, Managing Director of ISIT. “ISIT offers a flexible offer, with SIL2 or SIL3 certifications, or without a certification package, depending on the customer's needs, but always with the same guarantee of quality. The choice of the STM32 family was imposed by the strong presence in the industrial market of STMicroelectronics."
ISIT-COSAFE can be easily integrated into a customer environment, with RTOS or on a “Bare Metal” design. The modular architecture allows documentation and certification to be adapted so as not to impact the time-to-market of the final product. ISIT also offers support services for integration and porting, as well as certification support.
