This workshop is ideal for product design, safety, or management personnel involved in the development of electronic or programmable systems that may have safety implications. It is also applicable to a company’s product engineering processes as they relate to safety requirements and standards.
Prerequisites for the course:
o Functional safety management
§ In particular, the safety development lifecycle (V-model)
§ Specific aspects and activities: safety requirements specification, FMEDA, Markov, software criticality analysis, traceability, verification and validation plans, safety case construction
o Fail-safe, fail operational
o Random failures, systematic failures
o Safety Integrity Level
§ Determination
§ Requirements and verification
- Probability of Failure per Hour (PFH), Probability of Failure on Demand (PFD)
- Hardware fault tolerance
- Diagnostic capabilities
- Common cause failures
- Systematic safety integrity
o Environmental impacts (electromagnetic immunity, temperature, humidity, mechanical shock and vibration)
o Application, functionality
o Technology
The learning outcomes for those attending the workshop include:
Workshops may be attended at UL facilities. However, if your organization plans on sending five or more individuals to a workshop, it may be cost effective to have UL present the course as a private workshop at your facility.
