Improve Industrial Functional-Safety Compliance with Voltage Supervisors (Part 1) (Download)

Read this article online.

Compliance to functional safety is usually considered in safety-critical applications across various industries¹ where failures can inflict harm to people, properties, and environment. Product designers certify their designs to functional-safety standards so that their customers have confidence to use their products, to market their products in countries with safety regulations, and to lead the functional-safety market trend.

This article highlights the value of high-performance supervisory circuits² in enhancing compliance with functional-safety standards like IEC 61508.³ In addition, it’s the first in a series discussing industrial functional-safety compliance in relation to these circuits.
