Semiconductor switches used as safety elements enable highly available power distribution systems. During the development, however, the freedom from interference must be considered, which is achieved by fast failure isolation. Additionally, the switches fulfill the function of cable protection. The ISO 26262-ready EiceDRIVER" APD family from Infineon Technologies is one of the products suitable for implementing these safety elements.
Far-reaching driver assistance systems, “X-bywire” systems and automated driving result in new functional safety requirements for developers. According to ISO 26262:2018, this also includes the provision of a high-availability power supply for the driver assistance systems by the power distribution system (PDS). Equally important is the freedom from interference of other components and systems to the power distribution system, which can be achieved by introducing safety elements that isolate failures in less than 100 µs to 500 µs. Implementing semiconductor solutions enables us to achieve these goals.
