LSU 10/09/2007 Drawing a System Diagram 2
Basic Steps• Identify all major components
– These are your subsystems– Derived from your project goal, objectives and
requirements
• Identify all interfaces between components– These are either relationships or real connections between
components
• Produce your drawing– Components are labeled boxes– Interfaces are arrowed lines keyed to the interface
function– Keep your layout as straight forward as possible

Identify Major Components• Components are based upon the project goal, objectives and
requirements:– To measure something you need a Sensor Subsystem– To store your data you need a Data Archive Subsystem– For your payload to operate by itself during flight you need a Control
Subsystem– To enable your payload to operate you need a Power Subsystem– To keep your payload from falling apart you need a Mechanical Support
Subsystem– To keep your experiment at the correct temperature you need a Thermal
Control Subsystem– To analyze your data offline you need a Ground Support Subsystem
• More or different kinds of subsystems might be required• You also need to understand where these subsystems are located

Example Component Drawing
• Each sub-system has its own box
• Components are arranged in a logical order
• Components are grouped according to their relational location

Determine the interfaces
• Interfaces are the “connections” between the components– Could be a physical connection (e.g. wire, bolt)– Could be a relationship / property (e.g. temperature,
light)
• Each unique interface should be represented by a different kind of line
• Each interface should be labeled according to its specific characteristics
• Arrows on the ends of the line indicate flow

Interface representations
• Interfaces types– Power
– Data
– Control
– Mechanical
– Thermal
• Interface flow– To component
– From component
– Bi-directional
