Fadec are generally powered by their own engine via a separate little gen (PMG) so loss of main busbar doesn't equate to loss of engine control. Same with FBW. There may be a back up battery(Ejets) or It may also have separate gen (CS).

Plus if you have a RAT the chances of loosing essential power are almost zero.
