LDRA joins Renesas Ready Partner Network and R-Car Consortium to accelerate safety-critical software development

LDRA has announced it has joined both the Renesas Ready Partner Network and the R-Car Consortium. This collaboration expands LDRA’s support to include system development using Renesas R-Car system on a chip (SoCs), microprocessors (MPUs) and microcontrollers (MCUs) that must comply with industry-wide functional safety and cybersecurity standards.

“Joining the Renesas Ready Partner Network and R-Car Consortium enables us to work directly within the Renesas ecosystem to help development teams tackle real-world functional safety verification challenges,” said Ian Hennell, operations director, LDRA.

“Our expanded collaboration ensures that every Renesas-based product team can evolve their software verification capabilities in line with their roadmaps for advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), autonomous driving capabilities, software-defined vehicles (SDV) and connected car features.”

Comprehensive software verification

The Renesas Ready Partner Network curates trusted technology partners that deliver commercial-grade building blocks that work out-of-the-box with Renesas products. With this announcement, the LDRA tool suite integrates with multiple Renesas Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) including e² studio and CS+, and supports the Renesas RZ family of MPUs and the RA, RX and RL78 families of MCUs through LDRA target license packages.

This integration aims to assist software development and verification teams to quickly and efficiently comply with functional safety and cybersecurity standards, including the automotive standards ISO 26262 (up to ASIL D), ISO/SAE 21434 and Automotive SPICE.

The automotive hardware platform consists of R-Car SoCs and RH850 MCUs designed to address diverse automotive applications, including automated driving, ADAS, connected gateways, in-vehicle infotainment, cockpit systems and dashboard implementations.

With the LDRA tool suite supporting R-Car devices, embedded software teams can leverage verification capabilities directly within their existing development workflows.

This integration enables developers to perform static analysis, dynamic testing and verification within a single platform that supports target development on the R-Car S4 Starter Kit, RH850 Automotive MCU and other R-Car devices and the RoX (R-Car Open Access) Virtual Platform (VPF) to enable in-vehicle software development prior to hardware availability.

Development and compliance workflows

With the LDRA tool suite, development teams implement comprehensive software verification processes and techniques without extensive tool setup or platform-specific customization efforts. This is designed for teams working on time-sensitive projects where functional safety compliance, security validation and reliable software operation are critical requirements.

The integrated workflow supports verification activities from early development stages through to final compliance validation. Alongside Renesas toolchains and devices, the LDRA tool suite is compatible with a broad range of technologies, including tasking compilers and debuggers, automotive-grade Linux, Green Hills Software Integrity, QNX and Autosar.

“By integrating directly within the Renesas ecosystem, LDRA eliminates the traditional barriers that slow functional safety verification and security processes within their customers,” Hennell added. “Development teams can now implement comprehensive functional safety and security workflows from the first day of their projects, rather than spending weeks integrating disparate tools. This joint solution positions the entire automotive industry to deliver safer, more secure software at the pace required by modern vehicle development.”

In related news, Siemens Digital Industries Software has expanded its longstanding relationship with Arm, by adding support for the newly launched Arm Zena Compute Subsystems (CSS) in its Pave360 software, designed for software-defined vehicles (SDV)
