- Q1What is the primary goal of ISO 26262?Reducing development costsImproving software qualityEnsuring compliance with environmental regulationsManaging functional safety in automotive systems60s
- Q2Which of the following is NOT an Automotive Safety Integrity Level (ASIL)?ASIL CASIL AASIL BASIL E60s
- Q3ISO 26262 defines a "hazard" as:A manufacturing defectA software bugA risk assessmentA potential source of harm60s
- Q4What is the purpose of a Safety Concept in ISO 26262?To outline the system's safety goals and mechanismsTo assess the environmental impact of the vehicleTo create a marketing plan for the productTo define the project budget60s
- Q5Which of the following is a key element of the ISO 26262 confirmation measures?Regression testingSafety reviews and auditsMarketing approvalUnit testing60s
- Q6The ISO 26262 development process is characterized by:An agile, iterative approachA spiral modelA V-model with iterative refinementA linear, waterfall approach60s
- Q7What is the main difference between ASIL B and ASIL D?The cost of developmentThe complexity of the software involvedThe level of risk associated with the potential harmThe amount of paperwork required60s
- Q8Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) is a technique used in ISO 26262 to:Estimate the probability of failureDetermine the impact of failures on the system
All of them are correct.
Identify potential hazards60s - Q9In ISO 26262, "Functional Safety" is defined as:The absence of unreasonable risk due to hazards caused by malfunctioning behavior of electrical/electronic systemsThe process of ensuring that a product meets customer requirementsThe degree to which a product is resistant to hacking attemptsThe ability of a system to operate without errors60s
- Q10Which of the following is NOT a typical technique for achieving fault tolerance in ISO 26262?DiversityRedundancyError detection and correctionWaterfall development model60s
- Q11What is the role of a "safety manager" in an ISO 26262 project?To ensure that the project adheres to ISO 26262 processes and requirementsTo write software codeTo negotiate contracts with suppliersTo conduct market research60s
- Q12In the context of ISO 26262, "freedom from interference" means:Systems should not interfere with the driver's music choicesSafety features should not be affected by radio frequency interferenceDifferent parts of a system shouldn't negatively impact each other's safety functionsSoftware code should not interfere with hardware operation60s
- Q13What are the differences between qualitative and quantitative hazard analysis methods in ISO 26262?Qualitative is opinion-based; quantitative uses numerical dataQualitative is for hardware; quantitative is for softwareQualitative uses expert judgment; quantitative calculates probabilitiesThere is no difference; they are interchangeable terms60s
- Q14Proven in Use (PIU) components in ISO 26262:Have a track record of safe operation, offering potential cost savingsAre always preferred over new components for safety-critical functionsNever require additional safety analysis or justificationAre not allowed in ASIL D systems due to their inherent risks60s
- Q15Safety validation and confirmation in ISO 26262 involves:Marketing the product to potential customersRelying solely on simulations, not physical testingOnly testing the final product, not individual componentsProving the product works as intended and meets safety requirements60s
