2. RBSP/EFW CDR 2009 9/30-10/1Goetz 10 ICDR Entrance Criteria A successful IPDR –Responses to RFAs in hand ICDR Readiness Meeting –Preliminary ICDR Agenda Agreement –ICDR Success Criteria Agreement –Review Board charge ICDR technical documentation –Updated baselined documents –Instrument specifications –Fabrication, assembly and integration plans –Technical data package –Operational limits and constraints –Command and telemetry lists –Verification & Validation plans (SE-001, SW-002, TE-001) –Commissioning plans –Updated risk assessment/mitigation –Updated reliability analyses and assessments (MA-002) –Updated logistics documentation (SE-006, TE-004) –Software design documentation and specifications (SW-004) –Limited life items (MA-002) –Preliminary safety analyses (MA-006) –Certification plans and requirements

3. RBSP/EFW CDR 2009 9/30-10/1Goetz 11 ICDR Success Criteria Design is expected to meet requirements with acceptable margins and risks Interface Control Documents allow fabrication High confidence in instrument baseline; documentation exists or will exist to allow fabrication, assembly, integration and test Instrument verification and validation plans are complete Testing approach is comprehensive; planning for assembly, integration, test and launch and mission ops sufficient Technical and programmatic margins and resources exist to allow development within budget, schedule and risk constraints Risks to success are understood, credibly assessed and manageable Safety and mission assurance have been adequately addressed

4. RBSP/EFW CDR 2009 9/30-10/1Goetz 12 ICDR Expectations Engineering model development has proceeded well –AXB mechanism has been developed, tested and fully qualified –SPB mechanism has been developed, tested and fully qualified –ETU electronics have been developed and tested Initial performance looks good –EFW system has been integrated with EMFISIS Demonstrates functional interfaces –Flight and ground software allow end-to-end data flow –We will continue to work with the ETU for the next month or two Characterization Self compatibility Thermal testing EMC testing (conducted emissions) Magnetics sniffing Zap testing Procedures and documentation are in place No major open issues EFW is ready to move into building flight hardware
