Objective:
The objective of the Master Thesis is to establish a concept for a future smart embedded primary power supply including applicable control and monitoring logics and validate the concept with bread board or evaluation boards.
Detailed work packages of the master thesis:
- Definition of key requirements for a primary power supply regarding input voltage conditions (derived from DO-160 G regulations), secondary supply including load variations, targeted buck converter efficiency and all monitoring and protections features
- Development of different smart primary power supply concepts including the definition of evaluation criteria (e.g. efficiency, weight, scalability, monitoring capability)
- Validation of the most promising concept via dedicated lab demonstrators
- Summary of validation activities including documentation of the most promising concepts
Applicable Standards (which will be used and experience established):
- DO256 Airborne HW development standards including component management plan
- DO-160G Airborne Qualification Standards
