How does ASIL SEooC affect sensors?

November 27, 2024 By Randy Frank

Automotive systems that impact safety require adherence to the automotive functional safety standard — ISO 26262. Those electronic and electrical systems that are interlinked to use the input from one sensor to provide different functions in the automobile and minimize system cost, have additional safety considerations. To ensure proper and verified capability, the hardware (HW), software […]

Toolchain and software package employ ISPU to handle motion-related workloads

May 3, 2023 By Redding Traiger

STMicroelectronics has released a toolchain and accompanying software package for programming the intelligent sensor processing unit (ISPU) embedded in the latest-generation intelligent MEMS IMUs, ISM330IS and LSM6DSO16IS. The toolchain and software help employ the ISPU to handle motion-related workloads such as activity recognition and anomaly detection directly in the sensor. This permits reducing system power and latency, offloading […]
