Other Circuit Support

DESIGN PHASE:       support
SUB ELEMENT NAME:   other support
VARIABLE NAME:      [HESO]
DATE:               REVISION LETTER:    REVISION DATE: 
APPLICABILITY:  all circuits, switching regulator

ACTIVITY:  Support of circuit to systems, reliability, test
engineering, operations, and others.

OUTPUT:  Support as required.

ALGORITHM:

All circuits:

[HESO] =            engineer hours for support other than layout
0.0+                minimum support level
0.00*               time per part
[PARTS COUNT]       circuit parts count

Switching regulator:

[HESO] = 0.0+0.0*[PARTS COUNT]
