Electronic Load (one-pager)

Purpose

  • Make documented hardware design decisions
  • Fabricate prototype (i.e., PCBA)
  • Have not created a PCBA in long time
  • Demonstrate HW system used to test another system

System Overview

One paragraph description of the system

  • Who uses it
  • In what environment
  • Success definition
  • 3–5 measurable outcomes
    • (speed, accuracy, throughput, cost, reliability, etc.)

Goals

Concrete, testable outcomes.

Non-Goals

Concept of Operations (ConOps)

Short real-world narrative:

  • User powers system
  • Connects DUT
  • Runs calibration
  • Collects data
  • Exports results

Include:

  • Environment assumptions
  • Human interaction level
  • External dependencies
