STM8AF safety manual

Introduction

The microcontrollers of the STM8AF Series, featuring different memory densities, packages

and peripherals, are designed for automotive applications.

This document describes how to use them in the context of a safety-related system

(STM8A-SafeASIL functional safety package), specifying the user's responsibilities for

installation and operation, in order to reach the targeted safety integrity level.

This manual applies to the following STM8AF products:

•the STM8AF62 line, which is the mainstay of the automotive STM8A 8-bit MCU:

– low density devices with 8 Kbytes of Flash memory: STM8AF6223/26

– medium density devices with 16 to 32 Kbytes of Flash memory: STM8AF624x,

STM8AF6266/68, STM8AF612x/4x and STM8AF6166/68

– high density devices with 32 to 128 Kbytes of Flash memory:STM8AF6269/8x/Ax and

STM8AF6178/99/9A

•the STM8AF52 line: STM8AF automotive MCUs with CAN:

– high density devices with 32 to 128 Kbytes of Flash memory: STM8AF52xx and

STM8AF51xx

System designers can avoid going into the details of the ISO26262 functional safety

standard application to the STM8AF microcontrollers by following the indications reported in

this manual.

This manual is written in compliance with ISO 26262. It also indicates how to use the

STM8AF MCUs in the context of other functional safety standards such as IEC 61508.

The safety analysis summarized in this manual takes into account the variation in terms of

memory size, number of internal peripherals and the different packages available among

the different part numbers of STM8AF microcontrollers.

This manual has to be read along with the technical documentation on related part numbers

available on www.st.com/stm8.

1.3 Reference normative

This document is written in compliance with the ISO 26262 international standard for

functional safety of electrical and/or electronic (E/E) systems within road vehicles.

The versions used as reference is:

•ISO 26262:2018 – Road Vehicles Functional Safety Standards

This safety manual follows the list of recommended contents in Annex A, clause A.3.10 of

ISO 26262-10.

The other functional safety standard considered in this manual is:

•IEC 61508:1-7 ©IEC:2010.

1.4 Annexes

UM2138 is a collection of FMEDA snapshots. It is a static document reporting the safety

metrics computed for different detail levels (at microcontroller level and for microcontroller

basic functions) for a given combination of safety mechanisms, a given set of assumptions

and for a given part number. If a FMEDA computation sheet is needed, contact your local

STMicroelectronics sales representative to receive information on expected delivery dates

for specific MCU target part numbers.

UM2139 provides clarifications, guidelines and examples on how to handle the FMEDA

results for STM8AF MCUs.

2 STM8AF device development process

The development process of a microelectronic device used in safety critical

applications

must take into account the adequate management to reduce the probability of

systematic faults introduced during the design phase.

ISO 26262-10 Annex A (“A.3.7: Example of techniques or measures to detect or avoid

systematic failures during design of a microcontroller”) act as a guidance in tailoring the

microcontroller standard design and manufacturer process to the compliance of ISO 26262

requirements. The checklist reported in the named Annex A (Table A.8) helps to

collect all

related evidences of a given real process.

2.1 STMicroelectronics standard development process

STMicroelectronics (ST) serves four industry domains:

•Standard products.

•Automotive products: ST automotive products are AEC-Q100 compliant. They are

subject to specific stress testing and processing instructions in order to achieve the

required quality levels and product stability.

•Automotive safety: a subset of the automotive domain. ST uses as a reference the

ISO 26262 Road vehicles Functional safety standard. ST supports customer inquiries

regarding product failure rates and FMEDA to support hardware system compliance to

established safety goals. ST provides products that are safe in their intended use,

working in cooperation with customers to understand the mission profile, adopt

common methods and define countermeasures for residual risks.

•Medical products: ST complies with applicable regulations for medical products and

applies due diligence in the development and validation of these products.

STMicroelectronics product development process, compliant with the ISO/TS 16949

standard, is a set of interrelated activities dedicated to transform customer specification

and market or industry domain requirements into a semiconductor device and all its

associated elements (package, module, sub-system, application, hardware, software and

documentation), qualified respecting ST internal procedures and able to be manufactured

using ST internal or subcontracted technologies.

UM1915 STM8AF safety architecture

3 STM8AF safety architecture

This section describes the safety architecture to implement when using STM8AF

microcontrollers for automotive applications.

3.1 Introduction

The STM8AF microcontroller described in this document is a Safety element out of context

(SEooC), that is, a safety element that can be used in different safety applications.

The aim of this section is to define the context of the analysis in terms of assumptions with

respect to reference safety requirements as also assumptions with respect to the design

external to that SEooC.

As a consequence of the SEooC approach, the goal is not to provide an exhaustive hazard

and risk analysis of the system around the microcontroller, but rather to list the

system-related information (such as the application-related assumptions for dangerousness

factors, frequency of failures and diagnostic coverage already guaranteed by the

application) that have been considered during the following steps of the analysis.

3.1.1 Definition of the SEooC

The automotive industry develops generic elements for different applications and for

different customers. These generic elements can be developed concurrently and by

different companies in different tiers of the supply chain, as a distributed development.

Assumptions are made both on the requirements (including safety requirements) on the

element at higher levels of design and also on the design external to the element.

In a safety context, these elements can be developed as a “Safety Element out of Context”

(SEooC), as described in ISO 26262-10, Clause 9.

According to ISO 26262, a “safety element out of context (SEooC)” is a safety-related

element that is not developed for a specific item, i.e. in the context of a particular vehicle. A

SEooC can be a system, an array of systems, a subsystem, a software component or a

hardware component.

This document considers the STM8AF as a SEooC to whom an ASIL

capability is

required, up to and including ASILB, i.e. it can be used in ASILA and ASILB

environments.

3.2 STM8AF as a SEooC

The STM8AF is a general purpose RISC microcontroller, suitable for embedded

applications and, in particular, for safety related applications.

For a detailed description of the STM8AF functionality refer to the reference manuals,

available on www.st.com.

In this document, the SEooC is identified as the STM8AF microcontroller (MCU),

referenced as a functional block inserted in a system defined by Figure 1. The

MCU acts as

the processing unit of the system, i.e. acquiring field data from sensors,

processing

them according to the implemented algorithm, and taking decisions that bring to specific

commands to external actuators. The MCU is connected directly or indirectly to

sensors

and actuators through communication buses.

10/43 UM1915 Rev 3

Figure 1. Definition of the STM8AF as a SEooC

Other components, like the external HW components

needed to guarantee either the

functionality of the STM8AF (external memory, clock quartz) or its safety (e.g. the external

watchdog, voltage supervisors) can be connected to the SEooC.

3.3 Assumed safety requirements

A SEooC is developed, according to ISO 2626-10 clause 9, on the basis of assumptions for

its

intended functionality, use and context, including external interfaces (Figure 2).

Figure 2. Relationship between assumptions and SEooC development

The validity of the aforementioned assumptions is checked, in the context of the actual

item, after the integration of the SEooC.

In this document it is assumed that the concept specification, the hazard and risk analysis,

the overall safety requirement specification and the consequent allocation have determined

the assumed safety requirements reported in Table 2.
