Single-chip CANopen safety solution

Due to the high degree of networking in applications such as Industry 4.0, energy supply and mobility, the need as well as the requirements for safety will continue to grow. In addition, this development is significantly influenced by an ever-increasing volume of real-time data. Secure and effective use of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the services based on it will only be possible if the high level of development expertise for chip-based security technologies is further expanded. As an electronics services company, we can draw on in-depth experience in the development of customer-specific security solutions.

We offer you competent consulting in the area of openSAFETY and CANopen Safety. Our workshop provides you with a fast and efficient technological introduction. Furthermore, we offer preliminary investigations, concept development, reviews and evaluations to support your application development. The application development including diagnostics and test scenarios can also be carried out seamlessly by our specialists or supported. This also includes:

• Documentation and creation of the safety manual according to IEC 61508-3 Annex D
• Tool-supported whitebox tests with "Tessy
• Certification support for your application
• Worldwide integration support

Single-chip CANopen safety solution

Functional safety is used to protect against hazards arising from faulty and malfunctioning devices. Functionally safe devices are used wherever people and the environment need to be protected. Safe systems are developed in compliance with relevant standards, such as the IEC61508 basic safety standard. A Safety Integrity Level (SIL) is determined for each safety function. This is a measure for the remaining residual risk.

In the course of the increasing importance of this topic, SYS TEC electronic has, for example, designed two CANopen Safety Chips for use in safety-relevant applications up to Safety Integrity Level 3. CANopen Safety is a protocol extension to the proven CANopen standard. The safety chips and their error detection mechanisms in particular have been thoroughly tested and certified by TÜV Rheinland.

Both chips contain the CANopen Safety protocol according to CiA DS304 and can be easily integrated by users into their own safety-related devices. Our customers' own software parts can also be subsequently loaded into the flash. Thus, it is possible to reliably use the CANopen Safety Chips in a variety of applications such as emergency stop buttons, safety relays and safe CANopen bus interfaces.

With the acquired project experience SYS TEC electronic is predestined to carry out device developments based on the CSC01 and also to take over other safety relevant projects. Do not hesitate to contact us: We will also develop an individual, customer-specific safety solution for you at the highest level!

Certification support

We support your certification process! We offer individual document packages for integration into your certification documents:

• Execution and documentation of unit tests on your target hardware using Tessy
• Tessy project files for integration into your test application
• SYS TEC electronic coding guidelines
• Creation of safety manual for compliant objects according to IEC61508-3:2010, Annex D
• Demo project for SRDO communication

In addition, we offer consulting, advice and workshops by a SYS TEC electronic developer at the SYS TEC electronic headquarters in Heinsdorfergrund, at your site or at the certification body!
