Software Component Implementation

Sub-Module Functions

Init: PwrLimrInit1

Design Rationale

Init function is present in DataDict.m file but not shown in FDD model. Per the note in SF019B_PwrLimr/PwrLimr in the model, the init function is responsible for updating the low pass filters used in the periodic functions. Additionally, the init function starts up a timer used in the ‘Asst_Lmt_Condition_Determination’ block in the model.

Module Outputs

Refer FDD

Per: PwrLimrPer1

Design Rationale

Refer FDD

Store Module Inputs to Local copies

Refer FDD

(Processing of function)………

Refer FDD

Store Local copy of outputs into Module Outputs

Refer FDD

Per: PwrLimrPer2

Design Rationale

GetTiSpan100MicroSec32bit returns elapsed time in counts where one count is equal to 100 microseconds. Therefore, the value returned from that function is divided by 10 to get the elapsed time in milliseconds.
