As the safety requirements of electronic and electrical architectures continue to increase, the development of automotive controllers becomes more challenging. To address this, ZC.MuNiu provides a basic software platform solution that meets functional safety requirements for automotive electronic controller product development—ZC SafetyFrame. SafetyFrame is developed as an independent safety element out of context (SEooC) according to ISO 26262-10, meeting the design requirements for safety mechanisms of key components. It is designed and developed for functional safety software architecture in automotive controllers, such as MCUs and SBCs

The ZC.MuNiu Safety Frame product can be applied to automotive controllers with functional safety ASIL level requirements. Examples include:

• Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) Controllers

• Intelligent Gateway Controllers (Gateway)

• Intelligent Braking Systems (iBooster)

• Vehicle Stability Control (ESC/Onebox)

• Electric Power Steering (EPS)

• Electronic Parking Brake System (EPB)

• Battery Management System (BMS)

• Body Control Module (BCM)

• Engine Management System (EMS)

• DC/DC Controllers

SafetyFrame has been adapted and developed for various semiconductor chip manufacturers' series and models. The features and characteristics of the SAFETY FRAME product launched by ZC are as follows:

• The ZC.MuNiu configuration tool supports AUTOSAR 4.2.2 and AUTOSAR 4.4.1 standards

• The Safety Frame safety level is ASIL-B, and additional safety mechanisms can support applications up to the ASIL-D safety level

• It follows the ASPICE software development process, achieving traceability from customer requirements, MCU Safety Manual, safety library code, to test reports

• The Safety Frame safety software architecture is independently designed, incorporating the EGAS Monitoring Controller monitoring mechanism

• It can be integrated into both AUTOSAR and non-AUTOSAR architectures
