Introduction
Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) uses tree structures to decompose system level failures into combinations of lower-level events, and Boolean gates to model their interactions. The objective of this debug FTA example is to help troubleshoot and identify issue related to Board Update Portal based on Nios II Processor with EPCQ design example and resolve it effectively.
Fault Tree Analysis Diagram & Table
The FTA example : FTA_board_update_portal_niosii_epcq consists of a FTA diagram and table used to debug and root cause the Board Update Portal design example failed to run issue. In the FTA diagram, multiple hypothesis are made based on the failure symptom as described. For each of the hypothesis, it can have second level or up to third level suspects. The FTA diagram will then be converted into a table format to proper keep track of the debug progress. In the FTA table, for every suspect listed, it needs to have some action items to be performed to verify it together with some additional category information to be filled in such as Owner, Target Completion Date, Status/Results, Possible Next Step and Priority level.
