Customers can reduce safety certification risk, speed up their time to market, and reduce costs associated with safety certifying systems with Curtiss-Wright rugged safety-certifiable COTS cards. These cards are designed for use in systems where AMC 20-152A is the means of compliance, which recognizes RTCA DO-254/EUROCAE ED-80 with additional objectives. Our COTS safety-certifiable cards support a range of popular safety-critical operating systems. Each card is developed with an independent Auditor who has FAA Designated Engineering Representative (DER) credentials and delivered with a complete artifacts package to support DAL A system needs (also available for DAL C or DAL D).
