proteanTecs has launched RTSM™ (Real-Time Safety Monitoring), a deep data application for fault detection and failure prevention in mission-critical automotive applications.

proteanTecs is a global leader for health and performance monitoring solutions for advanced electronics.

Mainly, rapid advancements in automotive architectures, particularly with the rise of software-defined, electric, and autonomous vehicles, have introduced advanced electronic systems and complex semiconductor technologies. This, coupled with stringent safety requirements of the ISO 26262 standard, results in a new set of challenges for automotive manufacturers and OEMs. Thus, maintaining safety standards without compromising performance becomes a critical challenge.

Industry-Grade Safety Layer

Specifically, proteanTecs RTSM introduces a new industry-grade safety layer, serving as the ECU’s silent guard. It is a real-time safety monitoring, predictive & prescriptive maintenance application. Also, it allows systems to stay always-on while receiving immediate alerts about faults before they become errors.

RTSM augments the best-in-class safety diagnostic methods. Primarily, it monitors timing margins in the chip at a real-time resolution, under actual workloads and with high diagnostic coverage. Combining on-chip data with algorithm-based identification of issue severity, RTSM enables dynamic system adjustment and failure prevention.

Key Benefits

Predictive maintenance – it conducts algorithm-based Performance Index and notifications of risk severity. This is done based on thresholds, affected areas, logic, power domains, and history of events.

Prescriptive maintenance – real-time operational system adjustments to avoid failures

Safety mechanism – the detection of logical failures due to timing violations

Faster reaction time – low latency warning signals and real-time actions

Non-stop monitoring – always-on and in-mission mode

“With the automotive industry undergoing rapid transformation, our new safety monitoring solution comes at a crucial time,” said Uzi Baruch, chief strategy officer at proteanTecs.

“RTSM is poised to revolutionize the automotive electronics market by providing manufacturers and OEMs with the tools needed to meet the demands of next-generation vehicles. We are committed to helping our customers stay ahead of the standardization curve with a future-proof safety layer, driving the path to zero failures together.”

RTSM is part of the company’s comprehensive portfolio of Health and Performance proteanTecs Monitoring solutions. Primarily, they address the needs of the AI, data center, automotive, consumer, aerospace & defense, and telecommunications markets.

Moreover, RTSM is the latest addition to their robust suite of applications for automotive electronics. It leverages proteanTecs’ foundational deep data approach. Also, it adds real-time monitoring to their existing software offering including Degradation Monitoring, Mission Profile Monitoring, and Continuous Performance Monitoring.

proteanTecs will be demonstrating RTSM and other cutting-edge, deep data applications at the upcoming Design Automation Conference (DAC) in San Francisco.
