Mastering Functional Safety: Why It Matters for Modern Electronics

Join our experts on June 12 at 1600 CEST as we kick off our Functional Safety (FuSa) mini Webinar Series.

FuSa is not a checkbox! It’s a system-wide responsibility. Errors in electronics can propagate through hardware and software layers, resulting in system failures and hazardous conditions. In safety-critical applications, a single undetected failure can lead to injuries, legal liability, or irreversible reputational damage. FuSa oriented development process provides the structured approach necessary to ensure reliable system behavior, even under fault or unexpected conditions.

As electronics become more complex and systems more interconnected, achieving compliance with functional safety standards—such as IEC 61508, ISO 26262, ISO 13849, and IEC 60601—requires more than just solid design. It demands a comprehensive development framework, continuous risk analysis, fault diagnostics, and verifiable safety mechanisms—all embedded within your product development lifecycle from day one.

What You’ll Learn in This Webinar

In this first session, we will provide a foundational understanding of FuSa and set the stage for deeper technical discussions in upcoming episodes. We’ll focus on:

1. What is FuSa (origin, scope, and why it matters)?
2. Industry standards and overview across domains.
3. Typical challenges & misconceptions in FuSa projects.
4. Practical strategies and steps to address compliance challenges.
5. When to reach out to experts and how EKTOS can kick in.

Why Attend?

• Get proficient in the functional safety development approach and thinking pattern
• Understand how FuSa impacts design architecture, timelines, and go-to-market speed
  
• Prepare yourself and your team to meet compliance without overengineering or missing critical safety goals
  
• Learn how EKTOS can support your development lifecycle with design consulting, risk analysis, testing, and certification support

Upcoming Sessions in the Series:

• Webinar 2: Building Functional Safety into System Architecture
• Webinar 3: Mastering process-oriented development in FuSa projects
• Webinar 4: FuSa tools & Tricks: practical review
• Webinar 5: Calculations and mathematical approach to the FuSa

With increased regulatory scrutiny and shrinking development windows, this series is your opportunity to prepare, de-risk, and accelerate your development.

Register now to join on June 12 at 1600 CEST for the first session and receive updates for upcoming webinars in the series.
