Rose, C. M.

Technical work during the first quarter of the program was directed toward completing all design and documentation tasks associated with the MEPSDU Preliminary Design Review Data Package submittal. Highlights of this effort consisted of: (1) preparation of a preliminary specification for MEPSDU input sheet material (dendritic web silicon); (2) preparation of a MEPSDU module preliminary design layout drawing and all associated detail drawings; (3) analysis of the performance of the MEPSDU module over a range of operating conditions; (4) definition of all steps in the baseline process sequence; (5) initiation of equipment specifications for all long lead time items in the MEPSDU; (6) initiation of preliminary design work on the cassette unload element and interconnect feed element of the automated cell interconnect station; and (7) preparation of the preliminary quality assurance plan.
