Samsung Electronics announced that it has obtained ISO 26262 certification for the functional safety of automotive semiconductor components. It was issued by the TΓV Rheinland Group, which provides testing services for devices for safety and compliance with quality standards.
The ISO 26262 standard, which sets the requirements for functional safety in the automotive industry in order to minimize risks at all stages of the vehicle life cycle (development, production, operation, maintenance and decommissioning), was adopted in 2011. After that, in 2018, it underwent a significant update. Requirements for advanced systems for autonomous driving have also been added.
ISO 26262 certification ensures that Samsung's semiconductor offerings meet automotive safety standards throughout the product development process.
