IEC 61508

Model-Based Design is used for developing embedded software in the automotive, industrial automation and machinery, and other industries and application areas. Engineers use Model-Based Design to produce software that complies with IEC 61508 – a functional safety standard. These applications need extra consideration to address the constraints imposed by the standard and to produce the required evidence to demonstrate compliance.

Key products for developing IEC 61508 applications:

• Simulink
• Stateflow
• Real-Time Workshop Embedded Coder
• Simulink Verification and Validation
• Embedded IDE Link products for Code Composer Studio, MULTI, TASKING, and Visual DSP++
