Accelerate Certification with TÜV-certified Tools
Leverage pre-certified toolchains to reduce additional safety validation efforts, helping developers achieve compliance faster while lowering certification costs and complexity.
Fail-safe Development for Safety-Critical Systems
Ensure system reliability and prevent critical failures with comprehensive validation, static and dynamic code analysis, and automated workflows that reduce risk in functional safety applications.
Streamlined Compliance for Regulatory Standards
Out-of-the-box compliance solutions simplify certification processes, reducing development effort while ensuring adherence to automotive, industrial automation, and medical device safety standards.
Ensuring Safety-Critical Compliance with Certified Development Solutions
Functional safety in automotive, industrial automation, and medical devices requires strict validation and adherence to industry standards. Achieving compliance can be complex, time-consuming, and costly, but IAR’s TÜV-certified tools streamline the process, reducing the need for costly redesigns and extensive validation efforts. With pre-certified compilers and analysis tools, teams can build safety-critical applications with confidence while ensuring software reliability and minimizing certification complexity.
Streamlining Certification with Pre-Certified Tools
Meeting certification standards like ISO 26262, IEC 61508, and IEC 62304 can take up to 12 months and require significant resources if validating tools independently. Using TÜV-certified development tools eliminates the need for additional qualification steps, reducing liability risks, firmware updates, and regulatory setbacks.
IAR offers TÜV-certified tools covering 10 different safety standards, along with long-term support, prioritized assistance, and rapid issue resolution through a dedicated Functional Safety Support Agreement. IAR’s static and dynamic safety analysis continuously verifies software integrity, detecting vulnerabilities before deployment and minimizing system failures. Automated validation workflows ensure every software update meets safety requirements, reducing risk and lowering development costs.
With pre-certified tools and expert support, IAR enables development teams to focus on certifying their applications rather than their tools, accelerating compliance and reducing overall certification effort.
