In the last decades the automotive field has become increasingly multidisciplinary. This has happened because of the outbreak of electronic components first, and software programming secondly, in the design of more modern vehicles. Therefore, the need for controlled and safe products, hence functional safety, has become more delicate and relevant. In particular, the commonly accepted standard is ISO 26262. This addresses the possible hazards that may arise due to malfunctioning electronic and electric components and proposes some safety measures to prevent, detect or control such situations. The subject of this work is the study of two electronic boards, conducted with two different perspectives.
