  • Support system and method
    Patent number: 11409930
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method of generating functional safety data for a design of an electronic component includes receiving attribute data for elements in an electronic component. The attribute data include element data for the elements, wherein element data for a given element include an identity of the given element and a failure rate characteristic for the given element. The attribute data include functionality data for element functionalities, wherein functionality data for a given element functionality include an identity of a use case, an identity of an element, an identity of a fault characterization for providing information about one or more fault models and a configurable data for controlling selection and use of the given functionality data when generating the functional safety data. The method also includes generating the functional safety data using the attribute data and storing a report including the functional safety data.
