ISO 26262 is a risk-based safety standard specifically tailored for automotive development. It applies to all activities throughout the lifecycle of automotive systems—from concept, design, and implementation to production, operation, and decommissioning. The latest version, ISO 26262:2018, includes new sections for trucks, buses, and motorcycles, and extends support for semiconductor development.
With modern vehicles becoming increasingly complex due to autonomous systems, ADAS, and electric powertrains, the risk of failure can have life-threatening consequences. ISO 26262 is essential for manufacturers and suppliers to prove that their systems meet functional safety requirements.
Whether you're designing ECUs, sensors, or software-driven control units, ISO 26262 ensures a systematic approach to minimizing safety-related risks.
