  1. NASDAT & EIPCritical Design Review (CDR) ARRA Task 88 NASA ASF, 9/15/2011

  2. Contents • Background • Requirements • Documents & Drawings • Workmanship • Experimenter Interface Panels (EIPs) • NASA Airborne Science Data Acquisition and Transmission units (NASDATs) • Aircraft Installations & Status • Future Work • Budget & Schedule • Hardware Management

  3. Background • Why are we doing this? Sensor Web – A distributed and coordinated network of sensors which collectively act as a single “macro- instrument.” (Delin, Sensors Magazine 4/1/2004)

  4. Background • How this work is funded & requirements: • American Recovery & Reinvestment Act (ARRA): • Build enough EIPs and NASDATs to support ER-2 and WB-57 • Task expires 10/31/11 • FY11 Overguide • Build out remaining, known hardware requirements for Global Hawk and other aircraft • Allocations & details at end of CDR

  5. Background • Highly-Simplified System Block Diagram:

  6. Key Requirements • EIP: • Match the capability in the ER-2 experimenters handbook, and… • Support legacy instruments • Monitor DC power & transmit over ethernet • Provide ethernet switch • Fit in existing ER-2 & WB-57 footprint • Easy to install in existing planes with skeleton crews • Pass customer QA & workmanship requirements

  7. Key Requirements • NASDAT:

  8. Documents & Drawings • Key EIP Design Documents: • Assembly Drawing (a9444-ASF11-342A) • Enclosure Drawing (a9444-ASF11-341A) • Ethernet Module (EIP-ASSY-001) • AC Distribution Card (EIP-ASSY-002) • DC Monitor Card (EIP-ASSY-003) • Solid State Power Controller Card (EIP-ASSY-004)

  9. Documents & Drawings • NASDAT:

  10. Workmanship • Not many houses build to the NASA 8739.x workmanship standards • No COTS board vendors build to 8739.x • How can we maintain quality, compatibility with the standards, and meet $ & schedule? • Many workmanship standards are compatible with the NASA 8739 standards • Ex. All flight Global Hawk PCBs built to IPC-610/III & inspected at DFRC

  11. Workmanship

  12. Workmanship

  13. Experiment Interface Panels

  14. EIP • EIP Versions: • Mark I: 1990s – Legacy ER-2 & WB57 units • Cabling patch-through with low-current relays to handle cockpit switch interface • Mark II: 2009 - Global Hawk • First cut at fleet-wide design, ended up being GH-specific • Mechanical relays, lots of wire, no ethernet switch inside • Mark III: 2011 – ER-2, WB-57 • Meets power requirements of MK1 design • Manned aircraft interface • Incorporates ethernet switch • Leverages technology not available during MK2 design

  15. EIP • Power Requirement (ER-2 Experimenter Handbook): (25A x 2 ckts) (79A) (50A x 2 EIPs) (72Ax2 EIPs) (79A) (30A) (30A) DC CURRENT REQUIREMENT: 79A per EIP (2.2kW) AC CURRENT REQUIREMENT: 50A / Ф, per EIP (17.25KVA)

  16. Replace J1-J4 with smaller connectors that only have switch/fail/interlock EIP Instrument Power connectors changes to 38999 21-16 (same as MK2) (MK1) Still supporting 35Ax2 output but on one connector Fuse circuits internally, use poly fuses where tempco is not an issue Replace J13 & J14 with Ethernet; leave aircraft wire in place & use as needed. Ship-side signals (DC, AC, Control input) connectors are drop-in compatible.

  17. EIP J6-J9: MIXED AC/DC CONNECTORS J2-J5: COCKPIT (“AIRCRAFT SIGNALS”) MK3 Proto Front Panel: J4: 35A X2 DC OUT Mission Critical 15A AC/DC & Control 15A AC/DC & Control 2x50A DC Output Control & Data Input Mission Critical J5: DATA (“AIRCRAFT SIGNALS”) EIP POWER (DCMON & ETHERNET SWITCH) Mission Critical 15A AC/DC & Control 15A AC/DC & Control 3Ф AC Input Legacy Output 8x100 Mb Ethernet 4x1Gb Ethernet J19-20: (4) 1Gb ETHERNET DC POWER (TRU) J16-17: (8) 10/100 ETHERNET

  18. EIP EIP Left Panel: Mission Critical DELETED FOR FLIGHT UNIT 15A AC/DC & Control 15A AC/DC & Control 2x50A DC Output Control & Data Input Mission Critical J18: COCKPIT, DATA, EIP POWER, EIP ID J15: 35A X2 DC INPUT J16: 3Ф AC INPUT (2 CKTS) Mission Critical 15A AC/DC & Control 15A AC/DC & Control 3Ф AC Input Legacy Output 8x100 Mb Ethernet 4x1Gb Ethernet

  19. EIP • Flight unit connector labeling will match existing ER-2 drawings:

  20. L1/L2/Omnistar GPS (coax) (Global Hawk only) 3Ф, 400Hz AC Circuit #1 (15A/Ф)* 3Ф, 400Hz AC Circuit #2 (15A/Ф)* 28VDC Circuit #1 @ 15A (H: Power) 28VDC Circuit #2 @ 15A (D: Power) IRIG-B (coax) Switch (from cockpit) (N.O. & COM) @ 5A EIP • J6-J9: Standard AC/DC Connector (Amphenol D38999/20WG16SN) • 16 x AWG #16 contacts, same pinout as Global Hawk EIP * - Recommended loading varies per plane & based on SAE50881 analysis

  21. EIP • MK2 & MK3 AC/DC Connector Differences: • No GPS splitter in MK3 units (pin M) • Command Relay (pins P & R) • MK2 relay is a mechanical relay – each pin is passive • MK3 relay is an active device (5A SSPC) • Input must be applied to ‘COM’ pin (P), output to ‘N.O.’ pin (R) • 3-Ф AC Circuits’ wire rating • GH rates circuits @ 10A/Ф, ER-2 & WB @ 15A/Ф • Both units use #16 wire, different rating philosophy

  22. EIP • MK1 vs. MK3 “Aircraft Signals” Connectors: • MK1 had 5, MK3 has 1 full (J1) + 4 small (J2-J5) • J1: Switch #1, Pin-for-pin compatible with MK1 J1 • Uses same M39016/19 relay as MK1: NC/NO/COM contacts, rated @ 1A resistive • Adds AD590/AC2626 temp sensor, read out in EIP status packet • Labeled “DATA” on MK3 • J2-J5 – Switches #2-5, WoW/Alt relays, interlock/fail • Switches are mirrored from J6-J9, but polyfused @ 2A nominal • Switches are NO/COM only and polarity sensitive • Labeled “COCKPIT” on MK3

  23. EIP • “Cockpit” Connectors (J2-J5): MIL-38999/III 13-98 • Grouping: • J6 & J2 (#2), J7 & J3 (#3), J8 & J4 (#4), J9 & J5 (#5) Cockpit Switch (2A) WoW N.O. COM N.O. Interlock COM COM GND Altitude N.O. FAIL “SPARE”

  24. EIP • Ethernet : MIL-38999/III 21-75 w/ quadrax inserts • ASF-MEMO-001 contains all pinouts & tooling for quadrax • Re-pin mating cable per mission (quadrax rated 500 cycles) • J19 for network, so 2x 1G & 8x 10/100 ports available for instruments, per EIP J19 & J20: 2x 1G per EIP J21 & J22: 4x 10/100M per EIP

  25. EIP • What ethernet connectors should experiments use? • RJFTV – easy, available, inexpensive • RJ45 in a MIL-38999/III shell • Global Hawk issues solved • Contact ASF for support re: use with Tensolite cable • Quadrax: expensive, low-loss, good for aircraft • Stay with Amphenol quadrax (ITT differs) • Part number support & spares available from ASF • ASF also has pressure bulkheads available

  26. EIP • Key MK3 EIP Technologies: • Solid State Power Controllers (Ametek Amphion) • DC relay, over-current and arc-fault breaker in 1.5in3 • Trip state, voltage & current monitor over SPI • Low power dissipation: Ron = 6mΩ @ 20A (120mW), no relay coil • Fails to ‘open’ state • -55ºC to 85ºC operation • Surge tolerant (48V @ 1s, 80V @ 100ms)

  27.
