Part Type

The detailed specification of a part type takes place within Parts.
General product data

Requirements for operating environment, useful life, reliability, hardware and software, information about applications, etc. The requirements can be documented with the help of text, figures and tables.

General test specification

Information on general test specifications (standard test voltage, standard test temperature, standard test configurations, etc.) with the help of text, figures, tables and parameters.

Behaviour

The behaviour of the system can be described here. For more detailed explanations, see Behaviour.

Architecture
Block / Schematic diagrams

Block diagrams and/or basic circuit diagrams of a part type can be documented here.

Interfaces (<interface>)

For a basic explanation, see Architecture.

An interface can be hydraulic, pneumatic, mechanical, optical or electrical. It can have any number of ports. Mechanical, climatic and electrical characteristics of individual interfaces and ports can be described here.

Signals

For a basic explanation, see Signals.

A signal can be hydraulic, pneumatic, mechanical, optical or electrical. In addition, the type (analogue or digital) should also be defined. Characteristics of individual signals (particularly electrical characteristics) can also be described here.

Connection components

In this chapter any kind of connection component can be specified.

Connections

For a basic explanation, see Connections.

Each signal described under <signals> can be assigned a port. A connection component can also be assigned for each assigned port.

Power supply

Information on voltage, current and power characteristics of the entire system.

For a detailed description of the contents, see Power supply

Electrical immunity

Requirements for reverse polarity protection, overvoltage resistance, short-circuit resistance, overload resistance, insulance, dielectric strength and voltage mismatch can be specified here.

For a detailed description of the contents, see Electrical immunity.

EMC

Requirements / Specifications regarding interference by conduction, interference by radiation, radio interference suppression, electrostatic discharge and EMC design can be documented here.

For a detailed description of the contents, see Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC).

Environmental Characteristics
