\section{FMEA}

Two meanings, a general one Fault Mode Effects Analysis, meaning general statics diagnosis of a design, looking
at faults that can occur and their effect.


\subsection{Manufacturing Cost Reduction FMEA}

Second a methodology for reducing cost in manufacturing by taking fauls, their frequency
and their cost, multiplying these together, and then coming up with a priority list
for fixing knmown faults.
"The basics of FMEA by Robin E. McDermott et all"
ISBN 0-527-76320-9.


\subsection{Deterministic FMEA}

EN298 no two individual component failures may give rise to a dangerous condition.

\section{FMEDA Failure effect Mode Diagnositic Analysis}

This is a probablistic based methodology.

\subsection{Safe Failure Fraction}

Introduce the idea of coverage.
A good example is RAM in a microprocessor/microcontroller, we cann ot give 100i\% coverage to it.
We can perform some tests that give us 60\% coverage etc

\subsection{Diagnostic interval}

Reducing FIT with detecting a fraction of the faults within an interval. Give formulas etc


\subsection{Redundancy - Models}

1oo1 2oo3 etc

\subsection{Field Data}

OK for EN61508, not OK for nuclear industry find refs.
