PRODUCT COMPATIBILITY MILESTONES
To Be agreed to
PRELIMIMARY DESIGN REVIEW
PDR (Preliminary Design Review): Held at the point in the development at which
the first theoretical concept design is available. This review usually consists
of a "paper" design augmented with simulations and sometimes a limited amount of
measured results.
CRITICAL DESIGN REVIEW
CDR (Critical Design Review) Held at the point in development at which most if
not all of the sub-components have been built and tested for module level
compliance with the specifications. Measured results are available on most
parameters. Last point in the design cycle where the design may be revised
before fully functional prototypes are fabricated.
