Process management for avionics - Electronic components capability in operation - Part 2: Semiconductor microcircuit lifetime
Scope:
IEC TR 62240-2:2026 focuses on original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) using commercial off the shelf (COTS) semiconductor microcircuits for high performance, high reliability and long duration applications. This document supports OEMs in the preparation and maintenance of their semiconductor electronic component management plan (ECMP). IEC TR 62240-2:2026 describes a process and a method for selecting digital semiconductor microcircuits by ensuring that their lifetime is compatible with the requirements of aerospace, defence and high performance (ADHP) applications (generally in connection with functional environments). Methods and guidelines are provided to assess the long-term reliability of COTS semiconductor microcircuits in such applications; they mainly apply during the electronic design phase when selecting semiconductor microcircuits and assessing the application reliability. Moreover, this document focuses on the intrinsic wear-out and the lifetime of COTS semiconductor microcircuits processed of less than or equal to 90 nm feature size (also called deep sub-micron (DSM) semiconductor microcircuits) and puts aside, at this time, packaging wear-out and random failure mechanisms. In this view, physics of failure (PoF) is at the heart of the approach.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) introduction of an additional alternative path and approach where lifetime is assessed by the original component manufacturer based on user or original equipment manufacturer microcircuit mission profile;
b) update of Figure 1 with regard to the introduction of the additional alternative path & approach;
c) removal of the mention of SiC & GaN technologies from the considerations in 4.2.2 as the Scope indicates that the principles (process and method) described in this document can be applied to all types of semiconductor technologies.

Postal services - Harmonized track and trace events - Part 2: Return flow
Scope:
This document covers the track and trace events for the return flow of e-Commerce items, more specifically, the events that are most useful to the original recipient (if any) and the E-Commerce company that sent the item in the first place.
It provides a minimum set of events formulated in language that is understood by sellers and buyers of E-Commerce products. The logistic service providers (LSPs) involved can "map" their own internal events to the events described in this document.
A return flow is always linked to a forward flow that is the subject of CEN/TS 18055-1.
This document aims to describe only those events that are related to the returns flow. Therefore, this document defines and describes the exact moment that the forward flows stop and the associated return flow starts.
This document covers the following four cases of return flows:
- unsuccessful delivery (item remains in possession of the last mile operator);
- return to sender or equivalent party (delivered and later returned parcel);
- a service for recipients to send (parts of) a received shipment back;
- returns caused by failure to meet regulatory or cross-border procedure requirements.
Each of these cases will be covered in separate clauses of the document.
NOTE There are some processes in case 3 that need to occur before the parcel enters into the Returns Flow and they are generally executed by the E-Commerce company (or a party acting on its behalf).
This document will not describe those "precursor" processes in any detail, but it will describe the minimum requirements in terms of information needed by the first LSP to be able to start to execute the Return Flow effectively and efficiently. The precursor process is similar to the RMA (= Return Materials Authorization) process used in business-to-business environments.
This document does not cover the logistical flows within the facilities of the producers and sellers of the items. These fall outside the responsibility of the CEN/TC 331 domain.
This document does not cover all events necessary for an LSP to track items within its own facilities.

It specifies the behaviours that are required for PDCMS, and the system test criteria necessary to verify that a given implementation meets the requirements of this document. Implementation choices are left to system designers wherever possible.
PDCMS reduce the severity of pedestrian collisions that cannot be avoided, and may reduce the likelihood of fatality and severity of injury. PDCMS require information about range to pedestrians, motion of pedestrians, motion of the subject vehicle (SV), driver commands and driver actions. PDCMS detect pedestrians ahead of time, determine if detected pedestrians represent a hazardous condition, and warn the driver if a hazard exists. PDCMS estimate if the driver has an adequate opportunity to respond to the hazard. If there is inadequate time available for the driver to respond, and if appropriate criteria are met, PDCMS determine that a collision is imminent. Based upon this assessment, PDCMS will activate CWs and vehicle brakes to mitigate collision severity. This document, while not a collision avoidance standard, does not preclude a manufacturer from implementing collision avoidance with PDCMS.
Systems that include other countermeasures such as evasive steering are not within the scope of this document.
