1 Documentation in Electronic System Design Marko Pettissalo, NMP 1 NOKIA LAITE03.PPT/ / MPP

2 Topics Background End users of documents Review practice Overall design process Documents in different area s HW ASIC SW Design process related documentation Ways to reduce documents: Executable Specification Automatic HW/SW partitioning Summary References 2 NOKIA LAITE03.PPT/ / MPP

3 Background HW: Function of unit/board/module + additionally > 15 other documets are affecting to design Design schematic and layout Ready board + additionally > 25 documents SW: Function of SW module + Write code additionally > 15 other documets are affecting to design + additionally > 25 document 3 NOKIA LAITE03.PPT/ / MPP

4 Background Why documentation is needed: required by Quality Standards like ISO9000 to make sure that products are equivalent compatibility history of product is available manufacturing is transferable globally, even to sub-contractor HW/SW designers memory is detail limited Documents are mainly written in English and they are usually pages and they usually have standard templates. This presentation is focusing mainly to documentation of design, test and integration phases 4 NOKIA LAITE03.PPT/ / MPP

5 End users of documents Internal Most common for engineers Technically very detailed, from designer-to-designer, Engineering linguistic form; figures, tables, etc, sometimes no grammatically correct External customers Linguistic form created by academic wordsmiths Representative and rich text 5 NOKIA LAITE03.PPT/ / MPP

6 Overall Design Process Phases Phase 0 Phase 1 Phase 2 Phase 3 Phase 4 Phase 5 Integration and 0-series Rampup Feasibility Specification Design and integration testing production Sub-processes! Design and test HW units and modules Design and test SW units, modules and programs Interim review E0 E1 E1.1 E2 E3 E4 E5 E-Milestone reviews Sub-milestone Technical review 6 NOKIA LAITE03.PPT/ / MPP

7 Review practice (Technical) Review and version control Document can be a draft version or an approved version Drafts are approved after review by appropriate manager. Review is organized by person, who has wrote document under review. Review group is group of technical experts and main tasks are: attempt to detect faults and discrepancies; in SW reviews, also the source should be found propose solutions for faults and discrepancies found focus on the detail of the product ensure that design guidelines, methodologies and procedures are being followed attempt to find potential risks Approved version of document is archived by documentation clerk. If changes are needed to product, all needed documents must be updated and new review, approval and archiving is needed. 7 NOKIA LAITE03.PPT/ / MPP

8 HW and Mechanical units & modules To design hardware module/ unit and produce the appropriate manufacturing information according to given specifications. Inputs: Product definition Product specs.

12 Design process related documentation Requirement Request Motivation Required schedule Change Request Reason for change Affected organizations / people / modules At the end of design project, it is good to collect empirical notes of Used time, resources etc for each design phase Planned vs. actual 12 NOKIA LAITE03.PPT/ / MPP

13 Ways to reduce paper documents 1; Executable Specification A Specification has traditionally been on paper or an electrical equivalent. An Executable Specification is a behavioral description of a component or a system, particular function and timing as seen from objects interface when executed in a computer simulation environment. May also describe the electrical or physical aspects, like, power, size, cost and weight of intended system. May describe object at an arbitrary abstraction level such as multiprocessors system, architecture, HW or SW component. 13 NOKIA LAITE03.PPT/ / MPP

14 Executable Specification Usually, system is modeled and simulated with system level simulation tool, like Matlab, COSSAP, SPW, CCSS, etc Design language ansi-c, C++, what ever When simulated system meets requirements, paper spec of system is written for HW/SW designers. System people Task Task Task Based on paper spec, traditionally HW or SW design flow is followed. ASIC people Paper spec vhdl C verilog ASM Software people Integration 14 NOKIA LAITE03.PPT/ / MPP

15 Executable Specification, cont Same Executable Specification for SW and ASIC designers e.g. system-leveldescription-language code taken as a specification. Lot of different languages developed commercially and in the academic world. No need for paper specs. Reduces Requirement Specifications and also decreasing possibility of misunderstanding of written specs. System people Task Task Task ASIC people Software people vhdl verilog C ASM 15 NOKIA LAITE03.PPT/ / MPP

16 Ways to reduce paper documents 2; Automatic HW/SW partitioning Automatic HW/SW partitioning recognizes parts from C-code, which are more efficient to implement in HW (ASIC, FPGA). Usually these kinds of parts are inner loops of signal processing systems. Not so suitable for control or bit manipulation applications. 16 NOKIA LAITE03.PPT/ / MPP

17 Summary Required knowledge of languages at job advertisements = partly required by documentation. Also capability to read very detailed technical specs is essential. Before actual electronic design can be started, there must be several documents ready. And during design phase, even more documents are produced! New methods are increasing productivity in electronic system design, like executable specification. 17 NOKIA LAITE03.PPT/ / MPP
