This standard provides a set of practical methods for managing functional safety and other risks due to electromagnetic (EM) disturbances throughout the life of a product. This includes all types of errors, malfunctions or failures in products, equipment, and systems that employ modern digital technologies (i.e., hardware and software).
The purpose of this standard is to provide requirements for the techniques and measures used in the design, verification, and validation of systems, hardware, and software (firmware). These would be applied where EM disturbances could cause errors, malfunctions, or failures leading to unacceptable risks over the lifetime of equipment, whether safety or any other kind of risk is to be managed.
New IEEE Standard – Active. A set of practical methods is provided for helping to manage the levels of risks due to electromagnetic (EM) disturbances throughout the lifecycles of electronic equipment. These risks include the consequences of all types of errors, malfunctions, or failures in products, equipment, and systems that employ modern electronic technologies (i.e., in hardware and/or software). The work done in creating IEC 61000-1-2:2016 (Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) – Part 1-2: General – Methodology is supplemented by this standard for the achievement of functional safety of electrical and electronic systems including equipment with regard to electromagnetic phenomena) by providing requirements for detailed practical techniques and measures for helping to manage risks (not just functional safety) that could be caused by EM disturbances. These techniques and measures would be used in the management, specification, design, implementation, verification and validation, and through-life operation, maintenance, repair, refurbishment, upgrading, and eventual dismantling for disposal of equipment and systems employing digital electronic systems, for both hardware and software (firmware).
