A Model-Based Safety Flow for Automotive Semiconductor Products in Battery Management Applications

28 sierpnia 2019 — 16:00 CEST
Organizer:
ANSYS (meeting in English)

Because they are tiny and virtually invisible, it’s easy to overlook the central importance of the semiconductors that underlie reliable automotive performance today. But these small systems allow larger electronics networks to control every aspect of a car’s performance — including the batteries that drive many of the critical systems in the vehicle.

In this webinar, NXP engineers present their work on a model-based flow to develop safety-related automotive semiconductor products using ANSYS medini for semiconductors. Attend this event to learn how a seamless top-down methodology helps NXP engineers handle demanding safety challenges. It enables a consistent integration of all safety deliverables from safety goals down to the architecture as well as extensive safety analysis. NXP presenters will use an automotive battery management IC as an example to describe the challenges and the individual flow steps.

Should you be using Additive Manufacturing?

12 września 2019 — 17:00 CEST
Organizer:
ANSYS (meeting in English)

Interest in Additive Manufacturing (AM) and its benefits over conventional manufacturing techniques continue to rise. Such benefits include the production of highly complex and ‘organic’ geometries, lower costs and delivery times for small production runs, and the customization of one-off bespoke components.

Introduction to Reliability Physics Analysis

18 września 2019 — 17:00 CEST
Organizer:
ANSYS (meeting in English)

Ensuring the reliability of an electronic design is becoming more and more critical to organizational success as electronics become increasingly universal and complex in their utilization. Studies have found that design can account for up to 70% of a product’s total cost. So why do organizations continue to rely on the antiquated and expensive approach of “Design-Build-Test-Fix”? With an approach to the design process founded upon Reliability Physics Analysis, organizations can do away with outdated ways of testing for reliability and as a result improve time to market, lower design costs and build more reliable and robust products.

In this webinar, Craig Hillman, Ph.D. will introduce the philosophy of Reliability Physics. Craig will discuss the benefits of adopting Reliability Physics Analysis into your workflow and how it can improve simulation, modeling, and design. Craig will then identify who is responsible for Reliability Physics Analysis and how it fits into an organization. Upon the conclusion of this webinar, attendees will possess the knowledge required to convert their design process to a more efficient and successful operation through the power of Reliability Physics Analysis.

ANSYS 2019 R3: Introducing SCADE Vision

2 października 2019 — 17:00 CEST
Organizer:
ANSYS (meeting in English)

Because driving environments are increasingly complex, the cost of validating autonomous vehicle (AV) systems is skyrocketing. The future of AVs may depend on which grows faster: market size or validation costs. The industry needs a solution to break the “drive-find-fix” barrier for autonomous systems.

From a safety perspective, complexity is about how many edge cases AV perception systems may encounter. An edge case is a situation — unforeseen in the design phase — that can result in operational failure … or worse.

In this webinar, learn about the newest addition to ANSYS embedded software family: ANSYS SCADE Vision. SCADE Vision speeds up the discovery of edge case-related vulnerabilities in your AV perception software. It helps identify the root causes/triggering events underlying detection failure, by automatically applying augmentations to your input sensor data.

You will discover:

  • Why edge cases are so important and why manual methods of identification aren’t efficient
  • How SCADE Vision can automatically identify potential vulnerabilities and their root causes in autonomous perception systems
  • How SCADE Vision aids in the reporting of safety analysis results to relevant stakeholders and helps create a virtual feedback loop for safety improvements
