The DO-254/ED-80 CTS is an In-Hardware FPGA validation system developed to meet Level A-D requirements defined by the DO-254/ED-80 Design Assurance Guidance for Airborne Electronic Certification Manual. The deployment of the system has enabled Thales to validate for the certification authorities that the hardware implementation of an advanced avionics system’s RTL design is working correctly at the required speed in the targeted FPGA. Aldec’s DO-254/ED-80 CTS utilized the actual end-target FPGA device and enabled the reuse of the same test vectors as for RTL simulation in order to validate that the designs operation in the final target hardware met the actual system speed requirements without the need for additional analysis as is the case with other verification solutions or prototyping. Aldec’s DO-254/ED-80 CTS delivered time savings for requirements traceability and results analysis. The results from each of the tests were stored and documented to be used in the certification process as required by the DO-254/ED-80 Certification Manual…
