Integrated Engineering Design Final Design Portfolio

Assessment Details:

Your coursework will consist of the design of a timing device, the application to be of your choice but the design style to reflect this choice. The assessment will be based on the submission of a portfolio relating to your design. The details for the systems have already been given in Assessment 1.

You should remember that the mechanical detail and the electronic detail need to be able to be constructed. Ensure that there is sufficient space in your mechanical package for the circuitry. Drawings should be properly recorded with appropriate title pages etc.

You are required to put together a comprehensive folio relating to your design. It should be in the form of a technical report. The format would typically be as given below: Introduction:

Requirements Specification Mechanical Package Design and Justification Electronic Circuit Design and Component Choice Justification. Reflective Analysis of the Overall Process Conclusions

Appendices:

Full set of mechanical drawings Full set of electronic manufacture drawings Datasheets for components (not needed for all components, choose only key devices)
