IEC 62566:2012 provides requirements for achieving highly reliable "HDL-Programmed Devices" (HPD), for use in I&C systems of nuclear power plants performing functions of safety category A as defined by IEC 61226. The programming of HPDs relies on Hardware Description Languages (HDL) and related software tools. They are typically based on blank FPGAs or similar micro-electronic technologies. La CEI 62566:2012 enonce des exigences pour atteindre une fiabilite elevee dans les "circuits integres programmes en HDL" (HPD) destines aux systemes dI&C des centrales nucleaires de puissance realisant des fonctions de surete de categorie A telles que definies par la CEI 61226. La programmation des HPD repose sur des Langages de Description de Materiel (HDL) et des outils logiciels associes. Ils sont typiquement bases sur des FPGA vierges ou des technologies micro-electroniques similaires.
