    Beijing, China (November 22, 2024) -- Zhaoyi Innovation GigaDevice (stock code 603986), a leading semiconductor device supplier, announced that The GD25/55 full range of vehicle grade SPI NOR Flash has been awarded the ISO 26262:2018 ASIL D Automotive Functional Safety Certification by SGS, an internationally recognized testing, inspection and certification organization. This achievement not only confirms the excellent safety performance and reliability of the GD25/55 full range of vehicle grade SPI NOR Flash in harsh automotive applications, but also further strengthens the company's leadership position in the SPI NOR Flash field.

    With the exponential growth of the number of automotive electronic and electrical components, their safety needs are becoming increasingly prominent. ISO 26262 is an international authoritative automotive functional safety standard, whose core objective is to reduce the risks that may be caused by automotive electrical and electronic systems and ensure the safety performance of vehicles. Under the framework of the ISO 26262 standard, the ASIL (Automotive Safety Integration Level) classification system divides functional safety from low to high into four levels: A, B, C, and D, where D represents the highest level, meaning that the development process is the most stringent at this level.
     Zhaoyi Innovation always adheres to intensive cultivation in the field of automotive electronics, and regards product quality as the core of enterprise development. In terms of quality construction, the vehicle gauge level Flash aims at 0PPM, and continues to promote quality improvement, which has won the wide trust of customers, and the global shipment has exceeded 200 million. In terms of functional safety construction, Zhaoyi Innovation has comprehensively strengthened the process system and personnel management, and continuously improved the level of functional safety management. After passing the ISO 26262 ASIL D process certification in 2023, the company's vehicle scale SPI NOR Flash has once again obtained the ASIL D functional safety certification. It fully demonstrates that Zhaoyi Innovation has established a strict vehicle gauge chip development process system, and on this basis has a mature ability to design products that meet functional safety standards.
     GD25/55 Full series of vehicle gauge SPI NOR Flash, strictly follow AEC-Q100 Grade1 standard, adopt 55nm/45nm process technology, support 3V, 1.8V and 1.65V~3.6V operating voltage, capacity covers 2Mb~2Gb, It can fully meet the code storage requirements of automotive electronics. In terms of read and write performance, it can provide single channel, dual channel, four channel and eight channel communication modes, and the data throughput rate is up to 400MB/s, ensuring efficient data transmission. At the same time, the product has 100,000 erase cycles and up to 20 years of data retention. In terms of safety performance, products with capacity of 64Mb and above have built-in ECC algorithm and CRC check function, which helps to extend the service life of products while improving reliability. At present, GD25/55 full series of vehicle level SPI NOR Flash has been widely served by many domestic and foreign automobile manufacturers and Tier 1, the application field across vehicle entertainment video, intelligent cockpit, intelligent network connection, intelligent driving, battery management, domain controller, central computing, central gateway, area controller and other key automotive electronic application scenarios.
     Su Ruwei, vice president of innovation and general manager of memory division of Zhaoyi, said: "As an important medium for automotive electronic storage of key codes, NOR Flash's functional safety is crucial to ensuring the reliability and integrity of data in extreme environments, and is directly related to the safe and stable operation of vehicles. Zhaoyi Innovation GD25/55 full range of vehicle gauge SPI NOR Flash has passed ISO 26262:2018 ASIL D Automotive Functional safety certification, fully confirming the company's strong strength in the field of vehicle gauge chip design. In the future, the company will continue to adhere to the high standards of automotive functional safety, strictly abide by the relevant process specifications, and provide more high-quality and highly reliable vehicle storage products for global customers."
