HalCoGen to generate safety code for TMS570

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: HALCOGEN

Hello,

We are planning to use TMS570 in a safety project (IEC61508) SIL2. The startup code generated from HalCoGen is rather extensive. We have seen that there is a safety package available for HalCoGen. If buying this, can we consider the auto generated code as safe or do we only get some help to perform the certification process of the code generated from HalCoGen? Is there another way to reduce the amount of work needed to certifiy the init code generated from HalCoGen?

Regards,

Calle

    Hi Calle,

    There is information available for download here
    www.ti.com/.../safeti-halcogen-csp

    Including a user's guide. The first few pages of the ug explain what is in the package which in simple terms is an automated unit test and report generation environment including test cases. But you can add your own test cases too for functions that you customize.

    There is also a demo of what you get with the package.. Best way to understand would be to download and inspect this too.

    I think though that you will also want www.ti.com/.../SAFETI_DIAG_LIB
    Which has a similar CSP. Halogen mainly gives peripheral drivers while SafeTI gives you drivers for all the diagnostic functions. So you will want both. Halogen ships with an example to show you how to integrate the pkgs.
