A NOR flash memory serving advanced driver assistant systems (ADAS), zone control, gateway, and digital cockpit designs has achieved ASIL-D functional safety certification from SGS-TÜV, a testing, inspection, analysis, and certification services specialist. External experts from this assurance organization validated Infineon’s SEMPER NOR flash memory for the most stringent safety performance in automotive applications after a detailed analysis of product safety documentation under the ISO 26262:2018 standard.
Infineon also claims that its SEMPER NOR flash is the first memory product developed in compliance with the ISO26262 functional safety standard. “We are proud that the experts at SGS-TÜV have certified our achievements in functional safety and invite our customers to design SEMPER NOR products into their most demanding applications,” said Rainer Hoehler, senior VP and general manager of memory solutions at Infineon.

According to Infineon, the ASIL-D certification applies to the full range of SEMPER NOR memory products. That includes HYPERBUS and JEDEC xSPI octal interfaces as well as 256-megabit to 2-gigabit densities. Moreover, these memory products are qualified to AEC-Q100 grade 1 standard.
More information about NOR flash memory and its ASIL-D functional safety certification is available on Infineon’s Memory Solutions Hub web portal. The company also offers the “SEMPER SDK Safe” software development package alongside this NOR flash memory.
