Let us consider, for the sake of example, that the voltage follower (very low gain of 1.0)

TC1 and TC6 can be considered as low output from the OPAMP for the application
TC2 and TC6 can be considered as low output from the OPAMP for the application

For this amplifier configuration we have three failure modes, $AMPHigh, AMPLow, LowPass$.%see figure~\ref{fig:fgampb}.

We can now represent the FMMD analysis as a directed graph, see figure \ref{fig:noninvdag0}.
With the information structured in this way, we can trace the high level failure mode symptoms

We can derive an FTA diagram for a top level event, by tracing back through the DAG.
We can derive an FTA~\cite{nucfta}~\cite{nasafta} diagram for a top level event, by tracing back through the DAG.
Where we come to a node with more than one error source, this becomes an or gate
in the FTA diagram. Tracing back from the top level event $AMP Low$ we are lead to
the $OPAMP latch down$ and $OP amp Noop$. These two events can cause the symptom $AMP Low$.
