Dear Expert
Our group is developing an extremely safety critical product which is applying for the SIL4 certificate. This requires us to make our software as reliable as possible.The project is near its end.
The good news is that the mcu we chosen is TMS570ls1227 of tms 570 family which is applicable for safety-concerned product.
TMS570ls1227 provides us abundant tools to check mcu's state. eg:esm,diagnostic lib,PBIST,STC.
But after I read through this chapters, I got very confused about the difference between them.
can some elaborate this for me?
1.what the difference between diagnostic lib,PBIST,STC ? They are all self tests for me.
2. Are all of them pre-run test ? I think esm is a run-time monitor.
Many thanks.
