Safety Application Guide for SPC563Mxx family
Introduction
This document contains guidelines in order to configure and use the SPC563Mxx device for
safety relevant applications. These guidelines are preceded by one of the following bold text
statements:
• Suggested
• Implementation hint
• Rationale
These guidelines are useful approaches for the specific topics under discussion even if they
are not mandatory. The user needs to use discretion in deciding whether these measures
are appropriate for their applications.
This document is valid only under the assumption that the MCU is used in automotive
applications for use cases requiring a fail-safe MCU and if the environmental conditions
specified in the SPC563Mxx device data sheet are maintained.
Together with the standard documentation as the reference manual and the datasheet, also
SPC563Mxx device errata sheet must be taken into account during system design and
implementation (see Chapter Appendix B: Document references).
