AM3874 for medical devices and certification

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AM3874

Hi all,

Does any one know that can we use AM3874 for medical application like patient monitoring.  (with appropriate OS)

Is AM3874 appropriate for life critical application and certification. (FDA Class III or similar) ?

This device familiy is listed on patient monitor block diagram on processor list as shown at link below.

And Hercules RM4x Safety MCU family is recommended for medical application but not listed on patient monitor block diagram.

Is Hercules family mondatory and sole alternative for safety applications or this familiy offered for ease of certification and other families like sitara can be certified ?

Best regards.
