fRMethodology is a systematic procedure offered by YOGITECH to address IEC 61508 requirements.
Starting with the Safety Requirements Specification (SRS), a Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) is performed, extracting information with proprietary tools from the RTL of the target design. Precise reports about Diagnostic Coverage (DC) and Safe Failure Fractions (SFF) are delivered.

fRMethodology uses fault injection at all the different stages of the validation procedure: to validate the FMEA, to assess the safe failure fraction of the EUC including diagnostic, and at the end of the implementation stage. It can be used at block/IP, sub-system and system level.
