3 Failure Mode Distribution (FMD)

The failure mode distribution estimation for the ADS1014-Q1 in Table 3-1 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.

Table 3-1 Die Failure Modes and Distribution
Die Failure Modes Failure Mode Distribution (%)
Channel-channel short 10%
ADC output code bit error 20%
ADC gain out of specification 20%
ADC offset out of specification 20%
Communication error 25%
ALERT/RDY pin false trip or fails to trip 5%
