4.2.4 Internal temperature
The abnormal increase of the internal temperature is a potential source of dependent failures, because it can
affect many MCU parts and therefore lead to not-independent failures. The safety mechanism to be used to
mitigate this potential effect is the following:
• VSUP_SM_3: the internal temperature read and check allow the user to quickly detect potential risky
conditions before they lead to a series of internal failures. Refer to Section 3.6.18 Power control for the
detailed safety mechanism descriptions.
