FMEA provides systematic bottom-up analysis of component failure modes and their system-level effects. It identifies single-point faults, residual faults, and latent failures, supporting hardware metrics calculations (SPFM/LFM). Covers scoping strategies, severity and occurrence rating, detection method specification, and linkage to safety mechanisms. Integrates with DFMEA and PFMEA methodologies, supporting diagnostic coverage validation and verification planning for ISO 26262 compliance.
