Overview of Stellantis (FCA) CS.00056

Stellantis CS.00056 specification defines minimum environmental stress driven qualification and validation requirements for the qualification of all E/E components (devices) used on Stellantis programs. The standard describes the environmental and durability tests for E/E components based on mounting location.

CS.00056 applies to E2 Component Type Classification

  • Devices with passive electronic components with no control function (e.g., LEDs, varistors, resistor filters, capacitors, inductances)
  • Electric motors with no integrated electronic controllers, relays, switches, when containing diodes, varistors, capacitors, resistors, inductors or potentiometers.

CS.00056 also applies to E3 Component Type Classification

  • Devices with control/monitoring functions (e.g.: electronic modules, active sensors, display systems, motors & actuators with active electronics and, more generally, devices equipped with microcontrollers, integrated circuits, transistors, etc.)
  • Simple analog electronic circuits with transistors or other solid state devices may be in this category when they perform any kind of signal processing or control function
