Measure Magnetics

DESIGN PHASE:       measurement
SUB ELEMENT NAME:   measure magnetics
VARIABLE NAME:      [HEMMAG] [HTMMAG]
DATE:               REVISION LETTER:    REVISION DATE:  
APPLICABILITY:      [MAGNETIC COUNT] > 0

ACTIVITY:  Evaluate core and coil magnetics components in
circuit.

INPUT:  Magnetic core and coils 
        and circuit breadboard.

OUTPUT:  Approval of core and coil magnetics and authorization to
proceed with rest of magnetic design.

ALGORITHM:

[HEMMAG] =               engineering hours to measure magnetics
[HTMMAG] =               technician hours to measure magnetics
0.0*                     hours per magnetic devices
[MAGNETIC COUNT]+        number of magnetic components in circuit
0.0*                     hours per terminal
[MAG TERMINAL COUNT]     total number of terminals on all magnetics
