Failure Mode Distribution (FMD)

The failure mode distribution estimation for ISO1640-Q1 in #GUID-19DD4816-93DB-4E80-B1B1-BCD8698C6352/GUID-2C783C7C-284A-48D4-BA1C-B05A1833C868 comes from the combination of common failure modes listed in standards such as IEC 61508 and ISO 26262, the ratio of sub-circuit function size and complexity and from best engineering judgment.

The failure modes listed in this section reflect random failure events and do not include failures due to misuse or overstress.

The FMD in #GUID-19DD4816-93DB-4E80-B1B1-BCD8698C6352/GUID-2C783C7C-284A-48D4-BA1C-B05A1833C868 excludes short circuit faults across the isolation barrier. Faults for short circuit across the isolation barrier can be excluded according to ISO 61800-5-2:2016 if the following requirements are fulfilled:

  1. The signal isolation component is OVC III according to IEC 61800-5-1. If a SELV/PELV power supply is used, pollution degree 2/OVC II applies. All requirements of IEC 61800-5-1:2007, 4.3.6 apply.
  2. Measures are taken to ensure that an internal failure of the signal isolation component cannot result in excessive temperature of its insulating material.

Creepage and clearance requirements should be applied according to the specific equipment isolation standards of an application. Care should be taken to maintain the creepage and clearance distance of a board design to ensure that the mounting pads of the isolator on the printed-circuit board do not reduce this distance.
