System Workbench for STM32


STM32 AC6 compiler and SIL functional safety (IEC 61508)

Hi,

I'd like to ask, whether STM32 AC6 compiler is certified for functional safety uses (IEC 61508) or whether it does need to be certified.

AC6 would need to respond to this.

My understanding is that the compiler needs to have a certified validation to a functional safety standard or you need to put in place a testing regime to show the compiler is suitable for your application.

I think it would be unlikely that SW4STM32 itself would be IEC 61508 compliant as it is a agglomeration of various tools from 3rd parties - eclipse, gcc etc.
You could argue GCC has a very wide user base...
