FMECA Failure ModePossible CausesFailure Effects Method of Detection Criticality Microcontroller not working Oscillator crystal not working, Shorted or unconnected bypass capacitors. No communication between subsystems Observation,Low - Medium Unregulated Power Supply LM3102 Voltage Regulator not working Voltage regulator uncontrolled, Could burn out our device. Observation, Increase in device temperature Medium - High Printer power not being controlled DK1A-L-3V-F Power Relay not working Printer stuck in on/off state, Increase in temperature, Could injure the user Observation, Increase in device temperature High Printer stuck in one state LED light sensing not working Cannot switch between various printer states ObservationLow
