3. Introduction to Systems and control

4. The task Context: Electrical products often break due to lots of small parts and fragile electrical components, these repairs can be expensive and often unnecessary as the fault is simply caused by a ‘blown fuse’. Context:- is the problem that has to be solved. Brief:- is what you will do to solve the problem. Specifications:- a list of things your product must fulfil. The specification list is what you will use to evaluate your product against when you have finished. What kind of people could use a fuse tester? Why would they need it? What will make them want your fuse tester? Brief: To design and make an electrical device to test is a fuse is working that can be used by …………………………… ..................................................................................………………………………………………………………………………...

5. Exploring the task

6. Specifications Use the information you have learned to write a list of specifications for your fuse tester. Remember:- these specifications must match your design brief. Specifications • The fuse tester must:

7. How to solder The steps to soldering have all gotten muddled up can you put them in the correct order and match the sentences below to the correct picture? Step 1. Twist the parts together Heat the 2 parts to be joined Leave it too cool and harden. Slowly push the solder into the hot area Tin the tip of the soldering iron with solder Clean the tip of the soldering iron on a damp sponge

8. Resistors

10. label these components:

12. Planning B. Write down the two quality checks that are made. A . Can you place the following tasks into the order they need to be done. _______________________________________ _______________________________________ _______________________________________ _______________________________________ _______________________________________ _______________________________________ _______________________________________ _______________________________________ _______________________________________ _______________________________________ ___________________________________ ___________________________________ Why were these checks made? _____________________________________ _____________________________________ Carefully twist components together Are the components in correct place? Teacher gives you your components Completed circuit Trim legs of soldered components with wire cutters Drill Holes Test your circuit and fault find Carefully solder component legs together Wear goggles Is the solder joint secure?

13. Planning – Flow chart Key Start/Stop

14. How can I draw in isometric?

16. Packaging Ideas You can use the lines drawn for you to help make an isometric cuboide for your packaging design. Then have a go at drawing your own using the rest of the page.

17. Remember: Your design must include the things from your starter worksheet. And, You must evaluate each of your ideas.
