This article discusses the three most common reliability prediction techniques for the failure rates of ICs and how safety application notes provide such failure-rate information.
Failure modes, effects, and diagnostics analysis (FMEDA) is one of the available safety analysis tools that assesses safety-related system design against the requirements of a functional-safety standard like IEC 61508.
Autonomous trucking startup Kodiak is adopting NXP's power-management ICs to enable high-performance power generation, including functional-safety mechanisms to monitor output voltage.
ADAS and infotainment SoCs offer increasingly higher computing power, which in turn results in higher power demands. This article discusses how to design an optimal power architecture for an automotive SoC, focusing on pre-regulator design.
Analog Devices TMCM-3216 Stepper Motor Controller/Driver Modules control up to two stepper motors with advanced features like stallGuard2™, coolStep™, and microstepping for flexible integration in industrial systems.
