A Flexible New Way to Create Embedded Software Built on open-source development flows created by Arm and our ecosystem, Keil MDK v6 gives you the flexibility to develop your software in an IDE or on the command line, across all major operating systems.  DOWNLOAD FLYER ➦  Resources that help you to get started ➦

The certification of safety end-products requires a compiler toolchain used in development to be qualified according to appropriate functional safety standards. The process of qualifying these tools known as ‘Tool Qualification’ or ‘Tool Validation’ can be time-consuming and expensive process. Moreover, it doesn’t offer any differentiation to the end-product. While end-users have to be responsible for the overall tool qualification process, vendors of development tools can make this process…

FLEXIBLE PROTOCOL STACKS FOR IMPLEMENTING SAFETY COMMUNICATION • Modular design enables perfect adaptation• Easy implementation and certification• Developed according to IEC 61508:2010 for applications up to SIL3 or Performance Level PLe

For faster safety development and go-to-market, the Certified C Library can be licensed separately in addition to the Arm Compiler for Embedded FuSa. The library is a subset of the standard C library consisting of approximately 200 functions that have been specifically implemented and optimized for use in safety development.

The Ixxat Safe T100/CS offers device manufacturers an easy way to control safe I/O signals using a safe fieldbus protocol. The module meets the SIL3 safety requirement level as defined by IEC 61508 and Performance Level PLe / Category 4 in ISO 13849-1.Safe T100/CS is primarily designed to be used together with Anybus CompactCom, where the safety communication uses the black channel principle through Anybus CompactCom. For CIP Safety, CompactCom takes over the EtherNet/IP…

The Ixxat Safe T100/PS offers device manufacturers an easy way to control safe I/O signals using a safe fieldbus protocol. The module meets the SIL3 safety requirement level as defined by IEC 61508 and Performance Level PLe / Category 4 in ISO 13849-1.Safe T100/PS is primarily designed to be used together with Anybus CompactCom, where the safety communication uses the black channel principle through Anybus CompactCom. For PROFIsafe, CompactCom performs the tasks of a PROFINET IO device, while…

The implementation of the Ixxat FSoE protocol software (Functional Safety over EtherCAT®) is characterized by efficient protocol processing, which is essential for safe drive applications, for example. The FSoE software allows parallel instantiation, both for slave and master functionality, providing a multitude of communication options for the safe application. The clearly structured interfaces of the FSoE software also enables the use of different, non- safe EtherCAT communication interfaces,…
