Description

A frequent market demand for functional safety managers reflected the grade of the importance the functional safety won in last few years. Analyzing the past two decades we could see that this science was reserved for aviation and process industry. Today, it is present in mostly industrial sectors. It did not lose its systematical and rigorous character despite significant modifications and changes. The capability of universal use becomes the manifest in generic concept of the world wide established safety standard IEC 61508. It derivates the instances for various branches as automotive, medicine, railway etc. In parallel to FPGA a similar progress path can be recognized - specialized applications at the beginning, then frequent use for testing purposes and prototyping, while today it is an integral part of daily life. As a design platform, FPGA provides very efficient and timing pragmatic development capabilities. But these aspects cannot be trivially transferred in a domain of the safety relevant applications. The presented study focusses on this relation and provides a detailed analysis of the novel design flows of the leading FPGA manufacturers with the intention to evaluate whether the current FPGA structures are appropriate for the functional safety field. The primary scope is related to the implementation and evaluation of the On-Chip-Redundancy concept by implementing a SIL2 conform system The initial phase of this study was the development of complete computer architecture on the FPGA-based softcore 32-bit microcontroller. After successful system implementation, various internal and external safety measures that implicated a reduction of the common cause failures on an acceptable level, as well as an increase of the diagnostic coverage, have been integrated. In order to evaluate the safety of the system, the failure rate of each system component will be calculated using two different methods - gate equivalency and Xilinx reliability calculator. Validation of this concept is done by calculating the mean value of these two methods. In the context of the safety evaluation, we carried out an intense thermodynamic analysis in the form of a complex and reliable simulation whose results significantly correlate with practical results.
