The following schematic design process is applied to \acs{ETPH}'s space related projects.
|
|
|
|
\begin{enumerate}
|
|
\item Mission requirements review.
|
|
\item Identifying critical design drivers. (In most cases the detectors.)
|
|
\item Whiteboard Brainstorming: Detector arrangement (the telescope).
|
|
\item Initial \acs{GEANT4} modeling and iteration.
|
|
\item Intermediate telescope model freeze. \newline $\rightarrow$ Important to synchronize parallel activities and come to a mutual consensus between the different technical fields. \newline $\rightarrow$ Lab breadboarding activities start here.
|
|
\item Electronics infrastructure\ area allocation (channel count/ board space).
|
|
\item Implement structural/ thermal requirements on a conceptual level.
|
|
\item Conceptual functional elements' arrangement (the initial chassis design concept). Activities supported by preliminary CAD studies (to-scale 'lego-bricks').
|
|
\begin{enumerate}
|
|
\item Refining accommodation constraints, e.g. max. lengths of signal lines, shielding, viewing direction, symmetries, ...
|
|
\item Refine structural considerations, applicable I/F requirements.
|
|
\end{enumerate}
|
|
\item Setup of initial full-featured CAD model with to-scale functional elements.
|
|
\item Iterate \acs{GEANT4} telescope simulation.
|
|
\item Detailed conceptual telescope setup freeze. \newline $\rightarrow$ At this point all technical details of the telescope are finalized.
|
|
\item Refine handling and composability (assembly concept) considerations followed by CAD implementation.
|
|
\begin{enumerate}
|
|
\item PreAmp/ Shaper accommodation.
|
|
\item Detailed telescope design.
|
|
\item PCB accommodation and wiring concept.
|
|
\end{enumerate}
|
|
\item Inital \acs{SMM} and \acs{TMM} runs.
|
|
\item Implementing findings from breadboarding activities, simulation runs, detailing CAD modling.
|
|
\item Detailed instrument design.
|
|
\end{enumerate}
