Abstract
In this paper a complete safety controller on a single chip is presented. HICore 1 is a comprehensive solution that includes a certified application specific integrated circuit for safety-critical applications according to the safety standard IEC 61508, meeting the safety integrity level SIL3. It also meets the requirements of the standard EN 13849 Performance Level e. A SIL3 operating system and a SIL3 middleware complement the presented safety chip solution. Based on the presented solution, the smallest certified safety controller represents an innovative product and allows system manufacturers to create safe solutions ready for certification.
