156B Week 8

Overview of Status of Analysis, Design, Fabrication, Tests, etc.

• • Force Test Fixture

    • Creating CAD Drawings

    • Creating BOM

• DUT

  • Updating Adapters

  • Cartridge Heater Mounting

Accomplishments from Previous Week

• Updated Design for DUT

  • Performed Heat Analysis

• Looked into various ways for mounting cartridge heaters

Goals for Next Week (list names after each item). Use specific and measurable objectives.

• • Sam

    • Cartridge Heater Mounting

  • Damon

    • Design Update for DUT mount

  • Daniel

    • Heat Analysis on DUT Design

  • Richard

    • Screws and Tolerances for Mounting Adapters

Sponsor Comments from Last Meeting and Actions Taken to Address these Comments (indicate date of comments and if via email or in person)

• Remove the back wall for x16 DUT adapter for less operations when machining

  • Lower cost

• Implement set screws for heater

• x1 DUT adapter should include hole and slot for additional pins and configurations

  • Add 2 sets of holes for x1 to mount in any configuration

• Use Socket head screws (Allen Key)

• Use metric units for drawings

• Copper metal base instead of aluminum for DUT

  • Heat conductivity is more important

• Use helicoil for threads in copper base

• SLK heater head is made of Aluminum Nitrate

Instructor Comments from Last Meeting and Actions Taken to Address these Comments  (indicate date of comments and if via email or in person)

• • N/A (Meeting on Wednesday)

Comments from Other Students in the Class (indicate date of comments and if via email or in person)

• • N/A (Presentation on Monday; waiting for feedback)

Risks and Areas of Concern

• • DUT

    • Safety Risk

      • Thermal Fuse

    • Ensure mounting doesn't conduct heat generated from DUT

      • Don't let the SLK head heat up from generated heat
