Converted to NASTRAN and delivered to APL. • SCM Sensor Delivery Advanced to October 2014 for EM I&T Functional Tests • SCM Thermal Verifications in France Nov 2014 SCM ETU Preamp Circuit (Pre-3DPlus) SCM ETU Structure FIELDS Quarterly Management

  19. MAG MAG • The EQM Mag-netometer board (see photo) tuning is complete with excellent frequency response. Roll-off filters were adjusted to nominal values. • The FPGA has been checked out and verified as correct. It is currently being soldered down (i.e., socket being removed) to the EQM board in preparation for the next level of laboratory tests. FIELDS Quarterly Management

  20. MAG MAG • The thin shell calibration shows that the alignment accuracy of the new SPP MAG sensor mechanical design is very good (see 0.1% fit shown in plot). • Optics Branch personnel have started the support of the upcoming thermal test for the Mag prototype sensor (see photo). FIELDS Quarterly Management

  21. MAG • Other: • The first thermal cycling on the EQM board (-40 °C to +80 °C) at ambient pressure has been completed. • The SPP Mag thermal blanket model is complete and has been sent to the GSFC blanket lab for MLI blanket design. • The Mag cover shell molds are complete and have been sent to the GSFC Composites Lab to begin fab of shells. • We have started assembly of the FPGA-based data simulator. This is a command and data simulator that may be used in EQM testing (vibration, TVAC, etc) for use in FIELDS tests.

  23. FIELDS Schedule Keys to Next 2 Quarters (to iCDR) • Verify Antenna Optical Properties (SAO, July) • Verify MEP Low Noise Operation (I&T CPT, EMC) • Verify MEP Thermal Design (I&T TV) FIELDS Quarterly Management

  24. EM I&T Schedule What is wrong with our current I&T plan? [1] PROTO-RTAX is expensive ($7K/device + $3K/assembly) x 3 boards [2] Fairly Complex communications and timing between DCB, TDS and DFB [3] Strongly desire some integration before committing to PROTO RTAX [4] Sequence: Burn PROTO, Assemble at APL, Board Tests at LASP, UCB, UMN [5] Estimating the PROTO step will take 5 weeks (3 weeks assembly, 2 in test) [6] The current schedule forces peer reviews too close to iCDR. FIELDS Quarterly Management

  25. EM I&T Schedule Alternate Plan #1: Overlap Peer Reviews with PROTO fab/assy Alternate Plan #2: Perform Calibration, EMC, Staking before PROTOs are available FIELDS Quarterly Management

  26. FIELDS Instrument Risks Status 5 RETIRE RISK 4 3 PS F9 Likelihood of Occurrence (probability) 2 P P P P F6 F1 F2 F7 P CS P P CS P F17 F16 F12 F11 F10 F18 1 1 2 3 4 5 Consequence of Occurrence (Impact) High Medium Low (Criticality) FIELDS Quarterly Management

  27. FIELDS Instrument Risks Status • F1-P: S/C Conducted and Radiated Noise Contamination • Note: When the TWTA power system is changed to and EMC conforming system then this risk can lowered to a likelihood of 1. Mission CDR is the latest this could be resolved. • F12-P: Magnetic Cleanliness • Note: A swing test could be done to give us a good characterization of the remnant DC FIELDS. This would allow the likelihood to be decreased. • F17-P: Inboard/Outboard Magnetic Sensor Interference • RETIRE RISK based on final boom length determination and extensive sensor interference study. • F6-P: Magnetic Sensor Interference • Decreased likelihood from ‘4’ to ‘3’ based on the final determination of magnet sensor locations on the MAG Boom.

  46. DFB Risk Mitigation Proceeding If the SIDECAR experiences latent failure and/or has reliability issues, then the lack of a complete EIDP and respective workmanship could hinder the debug/troubleshooting, and have the potential to degrade performance and warrant possible redesign which could increase needed mass and power.Risk mitigationplan is to perform characterization and environmental testing on the SIDECARs. These parts have prior electrical burn-in testing hence characterization and environmental tests will demonstrate good rigor to retire the risk.  Risk rating: Probability 2, Impact 3; not likely to occur based on successful burn-in testing completed by GSFC/Teledyne; consequences slightly higher based on possibility of reverting to backup plan of discrete ADCs. Proposed/heritage ADCs are not as rad-tolerant, require more board space (mass increases), more power, and/or could drive science return. Newer, more viable, ADCs identified but require radiation testing. If the DFB PWBA experiences too high of structural deflection, then the assembled components may experience package stresses, with respective workmanship and/or reliability issues. The primary concern is the SIDECAR CGAs. This potential could warrant possible redesign of the PWB layout, structural stiffness design, or reduction in DFB capability due to replacing the SIDECAR/other components to stay within mass and power constraints. Analysis and part modeling in process now. Risk mitigationplan is to perform vibration testing to SPF-MEP vibration levels on an EM PWB with representative components and mass models.Analysis and modeling, along with vibration testing, must prove the PWBA design and demonstrate good rigor to retire the risk Risk rating: Probability 2, Impact 3; not likely to occur based on analysis and modeling and good design practices of the PWBA. Consequences now lowered with addition of ASIC Al cap which lowers structural deflection in areas of concern. Analysis complete, vibe test pre-CDR, cap in place on EM1.
