Avionics Integrity Program (AVIP). Volume 2. Hardware Case Studies.

Abstract

The report presents a review of the efforts that several avionic manufacturers and systems integrators are using to eliminate defective parts and processes in hardware prior to delivery to a procuring activity. Time phasing for the major efforts vary among manufacturers depending on what is perceived to be best within their own realm of manufacturing operations. The resultant data identified areas of concern especially (a) feedback from the field on the nature and types of errors that are being encountered, (b) the utility of built-in-test/fault-isolation-test, and (c) the specific nature and utilization of test equipment and establishment of data base information obtained from the test equipment. The case studies should be expanded to include data from the various users as well as from the base or depot level repair stations. The data from these organizations, if properly used, could improve the integrity of the product, especially for the next generation avionics systems.
