Understanding Microchip's Functional Safety Diagnostics Libraries and Ease of Integration Using the MPLAB® Code Configurator (MCC)
Understanding Microchip's Functional Safety Diagnostics Libraries and Ease of Integration Using the MPLAB® Code Configurator (MCC)
Safety and reliability are important and critical topics in many embedded applications. The safety and robustness features of the AVR® & PIC® MCUs and dsPIC® DSCs, in conjunction with Functional Safety diagnostic software libraries, are valuable tools for detecting, avoiding or controlling safety hazards caused by random hardware failures. In this class you will first learn how you can use FMEDAs and functional safety manuals to select the right combination of diagnostic methods to fulfill the Functional Safety requirements of your application system. Then, through a variety of hands-on exercises, you will then learn how to utilize the optimized API functions from Microchip’s Functional Safety diagnostics software libraries to significantly reduce your development time and achieve the requisite Functional Safety compliance levels. You will also gain insights on real-time application-integration considerations, such as choosing between start-up and periodic diagnostics.
