Independent Validation
and Verification.
Independently validate and verify your embedded hardware from silicon to sensor — CPU cores, cache, peripherals, and connected devices, with a complete evidence trail.

We validate the hardware independently. Your team keeps building.
No access to your source code. No changes to your development workflow. SoCcentric deploys its own stack directly against the device under test — and produces a timestamped, traceable evidence trail ready for design reviews and certification submissions..
The result: independent coverage across compute, peripherals, sensors, and environmental conditions, with an evidence trail your design reviews and certification submissions can use directly.
CPU, GPU, NPU, ISP — exercised independently from your application stack, with thermal telemetry captured in lockstep.
I²C, SPI, UART, USB, PCIe, MIPI — validated over the actual hardware, with drop counts and error rates logged explicitly per run.
Temperature, humidity, pressure, vibration — authored as test cases, triggered remotely, captured with three-stamp timing.
One HAL. Any silicon. Complete evidence.
Three layers: the target client (on the device under test, speaking FlatBuffers over FreeRTOS bare-metal or gRPC over Yocto Linux), the server (x86 Ubuntu, hosting run orchestration and the persistent evidence database), and the Web UI (Next.js + shadcn/ui, where tests are authored, scheduled, and reviewed). The only platform-specific component is the HAL adapter — everything above it carries forward unchanged when you move to new silicon.
The only platform-specific layer — maps test logic to hardware registers and drivers for each target
On-device app on the DUT — FlatBuffers transport for FreeRTOS bare-metal; gRPC for Yocto Linux
Hosts run orchestration, the persistent evidence database, and the REST/SSE operator feed
Next.js + shadcn/ui — author test suites, schedule runs, monitor live, review results and artifacts
Standardized test modes. Every peripheral. Every condition.
The same vocabulary whether you are testing an IMU, a PCIe SSD, a camera, or a motor controller. Test suites are portable across peripherals and platforms without modification. From a single boot-time health check to a 72-hour thermal soak, the framework produces the same evidence shape and the same audit trail.
One-shot
MODE 01 / ONESHOTA single discrete test: configure, execute, capture result, return. Used for boot-time health checks, peripheral acceptance gates, and deterministic functional checks. Fast, repeatable, audit-friendly.
Monitoring
MODE 02 / MONITORContinuous sampling at a configured rate, streamed live with bounded buffering and explicit drop-count reporting. Used for thermal soak, vibration sweeps, and link-quality observation under sustained load.
Event-based
MODE 03 / EVENTThe device fires when a configured condition is met — threshold crossing, fault, state change, or environmental trigger. Captures the exact moment with timestamps from origin, relay, and server.
Long-running
MODE 04 / LONGRUNHours or days of continuous execution with periodic progress snapshots and intermediate evidence capture. Used for endurance qualification and catching faults that only surface over time.
Dogfooded on six in-house reference test beds.
We run the Independent V&V Suite against our own reference platforms before any release. Each board covers a distinct target class — automotive SoC, avionics bare-metal, robotics compute, medical SBC, industrial real-time, edge compute. If your product sits in one of these classes, validation starts in days. If your silicon differs, we port the HAL adapter.
Five coverage tiers. Hardware-up.
Independent validation from the compute layer down to the environmental chamber. Each tier has its own test logic in the HAL, its own evidence shape in the database, and its own artifact in the audit trail.
Compute
CPU, GPU, graphics processor, media processor, NPU and ISP where present — each exercised under load via the HAL, independently of the application stack. Example check: sustained GPU utilization at rated clock with thermal telemetry captured at 10 Hz throughout.
Peripherals & busses
I²C, SPI, UART, USB, PCIe, MIPI, and similar — validated over the actual bus at operating frequency, not emulated. Drop counts reported explicitly per run. Example check: PCIe link stress at rated bandwidth with error-rate and retrain-count logged over a 30-minute window.
Sensors & actuators
IMU, ADC, DAC, and the long tail of on-board sensors and actuators exercised through the HAL adapter. Example check: IMU axis-alignment verification and noise-floor measurement at room temperature, followed by the same check at thermal extremes.
Perception devices
Cameras, LiDAR, radar, ToF — high-bandwidth devices validated for frame integrity, sync timing, and transport reliability under load. Example check: camera pipeline frame-drop count and latency distribution measured under concurrent LiDAR polling across a 60-second one-shot run.
Environmental conditions
Temperature, humidity, pressure, and thermal load — authored as test cases in the Web UI and triggered remotely. Monitoring mode streams telemetry continuously; event-based mode fires on threshold crossings. Example check: I²C bus error rate sampled at 1 kHz while the chamber ramps from 25 °C to 85 °C, with an event fired on any NACK.
Four industries. Specific validation programs.
Forward-camera + radar fusion ECU under thermal cycling.
An ADAS ECU integrating a MIPI camera pipeline and radar interface required ISO 26262 ASIL-B platform evidence before safety sign-off. The suite ran the camera and radar subsystems concurrently under a thermal sweep from 25 °C to 95 °C, capturing frame-drop counts, bus error rates, and thermal telemetry throughout. Evidence mapped directly to ASIL-B test-to-requirement linkage.

- GPU / ISP

UAV mission computer MIPI camera + IMU stack across pressure altitudes.
A UAV mission computer carrying a MIPI camera array and a six-axis IMU needed DO-254 hardware artifact evidence and repeatable build-and-run records across simulated pressure altitude profiles. The suite logged IMU axis alignment, camera sync timing, and UART telemetry link quality at each altitude step. All run records were retained for DO-254 structural-coverage review.

- Six-axis IMU
- UART telemetry link
- Environmental chamber (pressure)
Patient-monitor SBC I²C sensor bus under continuous duty.
A patient-monitor SBC polling multiple I²C sensors continuously required IEC 62304 lifecycle evidence and FDA software-of-unknown-provenance mitigation records. The suite ran a 72-hour long-running test sampling the I²C bus at 500 Hz, logging NACK counts, timing drift, and any anomalous sensor state transitions. The resulting artifacts satisfied the IEC 62304 lifecycle-aligned log requirement.

- ADC channels
- UART debug interface
- Thermal sensor
AGV LiDAR + motor-controller chain under vibration.
An AGV platform combining a LiDAR unit and a motor-controller chain over SPI required IEC 61508 functional-safety evidence under operating vibration profiles. The suite ran event-based validation triggering on LiDAR scan-gap events and motor-fault signals, with monitoring mode capturing SPI bus integrity and latency distribution throughout. Environmental-stress records documented behavior at peak vibration load.

- Motor controller (SPI)
- IMU
- Environmental chamber (vibration)
Every run produces the artifacts certification programs need.
Every test run, every parameter, every result — captured, time-stamped, and traceable. The evidence database is append-only: runs are never silently deleted, operator actions are logged with identity and timestamp, and schema versions are snapshotted per run.
