This document is a functional safety manual for
the Texas Instruments TCAN1164-Q1 component. The specific
orderable part numbers supported by this functional safety manual are as
follows:
- [TCAN1164-Q1] (Orderable Part #: TCAN1164DMTRQ1)
- [TCAN1164T-Q1] (Orderable Part #: TCAN1164TDMTRQ1)
Note: In this document, the TCAN1164-Q1
refers to both the TCAN1164-Q1 and the TCAN1164T-Q1. The difference between
these devices is listed in
Table 1-1.

This functional safety manual provides information needed by system developers
to help in the creation of a functional safety system using a
TCAN1164-Q1 component. This document includes:
- An overview of the component
architecture
- An overview of the development process used to decrease the
probability of systematic failures
- An overview
of the functional safety architecture for management of random failures
- The
details of architecture partitions and implemented functional safety mechanisms
The following information is documented in the
[Functional Safety Analysis Report] and is not repeated in this
document:
- Summary of failure rates (FIT) of the
component
- Summary of functional safety metrics of the hardware component for
targeted standards (for example IEC 61508, ISO 26262, and so forth)
- Quantitative functional safety analysis (also known as FMEDA, Failure Modes,
Effects, and Diagnostics Analysis) with detail of the different parts of the component, allowing
for customized application of functional safety mechanisms
- Assumptions used in
the calculation of functional safety metrics
The following information is documented in the
[Functional Safety Report], and is not repeated in this document:
- Results of assessments of
compliance to targeted standards
The user of this document should have a
general familiarity with the TCAN1164-Q1
component. For more information, refer to the data sheet. This
document is intended to be used in conjunction with the pertinent data sheets,
technical reference manuals, and other component documentation.
