Being fully committed to safety and innovation, HighTec now offers the first ISO 26262
ASIL
D qualified Rust Compiler Development Platform for Infineon AURIX. This marks a
significant
industry milestone towards increased security, safety and efficiency in automotive software
development.
Managing the growing complexity of models is a major challenge in
In the rapidly evolving Software-Defined Vehicles (SDVs), security, complexity, and
cost-effectiveness present significant challenges, moving the industry towards secure, safer
and more efficient programming solutions. Rust is a memory safe programming language that
provides major advantages over traditional languages by minimizing security risks,
shortening development cycles and reducing costs.
The HighTec Rust Compiler, tailored for AURIX TC3x and TC4x microcontrollers, leverages the
advanced open-source LLVM technology to deliver the full range of Rust language features,
including memory safety, concurrency, and interoperability, for applications with strict
requirements regarding safety, security, high-performance, and rapid deployment.

HighTec's pioneering step towards the Rust compiler qualification, that goes beyond
language
conformity, complements its successful C/C++ compiler for Infineon AURIX
microcontrollers,
which is also ASIL D qualified according to ISO 26262.
Both compilers are built on the cutting-edge LLVM open-source
technology. This unified toolchain solution allows seamless integration of newly
developed
Rust code with legacy C/C++ code or a so-called hybrid development approach.
Therefore,
software developers e.g. can identify critical functions in terms of security, rewrite that
part in Rust and integrate it in their overall system.
