VeriSilicon Image Signal Processor IP Achieved ISO 26262 Automotive Functional Safety Certification

VeriSilicon (688521.SH), a leading Silicon Platform as a Service (SiPaaSR)
company, today announced its Image Signal Processor (the Vivante ISP) IP
ISP8000L-FS V5.0.0, designed for advanced and high-performance camera
applications, has now been certified ASIL-B as Safety Element out of Context
(SEooC) in compliance with the ISO 26262 standard. The certification has
been issued by leading safety consultancy company ResilTech.

The certification of this leading ISP design for functional safety is a key
milestone for VeriSilicon into the automotive applications targeting highly
safe applications such as Driver Monitoring Systems and Autonomous Vehicles.

The certified ISP8000L-FS V5.0.0 supports dual real-time cameras and can
reach up to 600 MegaPixel/s throughput rate. It integrates multi-exposure
HDR (High Dynamic Range) processing and advanced noise reduction in both
spatial and temporal domains. Following ISO 26262 development process and
with functional safety equipped, the ISP8000L-FS V5.0.0 can provide high
quality and reliable camera processing for automotive systems.

Wei-Jin Dai, Executive VP and GM of IP Division at VeriSilicon, said,
“Functionally safe SoCs are the key technology to fuel the growth of
electric vehicles and autonomous driving, which is a fast-growing segment
with many innovations. In our automotive customer base, we see high demand
for ISO 26262 compliant IPs as well as ASICs. ISP8000L-FS V5.0.0 IP is the
first VeriSilicon IP to reach ISO 26262 certification; subsequently, other
VeriSilicon IPs, including VPU, Display Processor, NPU, GPU and DSP, will
also reach ISO 26262 certification.”
