SK hynix said Wednesday its LPDDR5X low-power DRAM earned Safety Integrity Level 3 certification under IEC 61508, the international standard for industrial functional safety, a level the company describes as the highest attainable for a single memory chip. It also secured ISO/SAE 21434 certification for its automotive cybersecurity management system, with both assessments conducted by SGS-TÜV Saar.
The new certifications add to ASIL-D certification under ISO 26262 for its automotive LPDDR5X in January and a TISAX assessment in early 2025, as the HBM frontrunner pushes into robots, autonomous vehicles and smart factories. U.S. rival Micron also holds SIL 3 certification for LPDDR5X, and SK hynix has not disclosed new customers or contracts tied to the certifications.
