Streamline DO-254 Compliance With Model-Based Design
By Jacob Wiltgen - 06 Oct, 2022 - Comments: 0

By Eric Cigan, MathWorks, and Jacob Wiltgen, Siemens EDA The purpose of DO-254 (formally known as RTCA/ DO-254 or ED80) is to provide guidance for the development of airborne electronic hardware. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), and other worldwide aviation safety authorities require this standard to ensure that complex electronic hardware us... » read more

Enabling Model-Based Design For DO-254 Certification Compliance
By Siemens EDA - 31 Aug, 2022 - Comments: 0

The increasing prevalence and cost of projects that need to comply with the DO-254 standard is forcing companies to evaluate their development processes. This white paper shows a development approach to compliance using model-based design. It covers how a DO-254 workflow using model-based design promotes a consistent requirements-oriented project view and increases reuse of design and verificat... » read more

Power, Performance — Avionics Designers Want It All
By Heidi Elliott - 10 Jun, 2021 - Comments: 0

Not long ago, the prevailing philosophy among chip designers for aviation systems could be summed up as, “I feel the need — the need for speed.” Today, aviation’s top guns have pulled back on the throttle a bit. There’s a more nuanced discussion balancing the need for performance versus power, with other factors coming into consideration such as safety, security certifications and ove... » read more

Big Changes In Verification
By Ann Mutschler - 28 Jan, 2021 - Comments: 0

Verification is undergoing fundamental change as chips become increasingly complex, heterogeneous, and integrated into larger systems. Tools, methodologies, and the mindset of verification engineers themselves are all shifting to adapt to these new designs, although with so many moving pieces this isn't always so easy to comprehend. Ferreting out bugs in a design now requires a multi-faceted... » read more

Cleared—And Verified—For Takeoff
By Rob van Blommestein - 27 Aug, 2020 - Comments: 0

If you’re like me, you’re probably not in any hurry to get on an airplane amidst our current global pandemic. Commercial air travel has declined dramatically as a result of the novel coronavirus—but beyond private and recreational travel, aviation remains an essential component of many key areas of modern life, including military and defense; commerce and package delivery; medical care; s... » read more

Design For Airborne Electronics
By Ann Mutschler - 03 Feb, 2020 - Comments: 0

The Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen), an FAA-led modernization of America's air transportation system meant to make flying more efficient, predictable and safer, is currently underway as one of the most ambitious infrastructure projects in U.S. history. This is not just a minor upgrade to an aging infrastructure. The FAA and partners are in the process of implementing new ... » read more
