HighTec’s Rust compiler now supports ST’s Stellar automotive MCUs, accelerating safety-critical system development for software-defined vehicles (SDVs). Stellar 28-nm MCUs are certified to ISO 26262 ASIL D, the highest level of risk management, while the Rust compiler is qualified to the same safety level.
Rust’s safety, performance, and reliability make it an emerging choice for automotive mission-critical systems. It includes provisions to safeguard memory, process threads, and data types, with runtime efficiency comparable to C/C++ in execution time and memory usage. HighTec’s C/C++ and Rust compilers enable the integration of newly developed Rust code, with its inherent safety benefits, alongside legacy C/C++ code.
ST’s Stellar automotive MCUs feature Arm Cortex-R52+ cores and a safety-focused architecture. In addition to ISO 26262 ASIL D certification, they comply with ISO 21434 cybersecurity standards and UN155 requirements, ensuring alignment with the latest safety and security standards.
