Subject: LRU undetected failure rates
Message:
In performing a system safety analysis for an aircraft installation I used the product manufacturer's Failure Modes and Criticality Analysis as a starting point for my system level analysis. The manufaturer maintains that the undetected failure rate (failures not detected by Built In Test) for LRUs interfaced with the system can be assumed at 5% for digital components and 10% for analog LRUs. Is there any data or documentation to substantiate this position?
