Diodes Functional Safety

The last thirty years has seen incredible acceleration in the growth of electronics within the automotive industry.

Electronics is into vastly more areas than before, many directly affecting the safety and reliability of vehicles, which have created the concept of functional safety (FuSa/ASIL)…

Functional safety forms an integral part of each automotive system development phase. Diodes Incorporated (Diodes) has created a range of Automotive-Compliant, Quality-Managed products that help with the development of ASIL systems by providing Functional Safety FIT information and FMD. These are called FuSa Capable

For products more directly involved with Functional Safety Integrity, Diodes has developed an ISO 26262-ready/compliant portfolio, which has been developed using our ISO 26262 development procedure.
