Last Week's Accomplishments

NIRCam Activities for Week Ending 2/15/06

1) Held a successful FPA CDR.
2) Held a very useful FPE TIM where progress was made against some of the open ICD issues.
3) Dynaco FPA cables have been received and are being evaluated for use in development unit SCAs.
4) Flight software held a CDR dry run which revealed that there were too many open issues with interfaces to ISIM FSW inthe ASIC and fault management areas to hold a real CDR now.
5) Submitted NIRCam Spec Rev D.

Announcements

NIRCam FPA CDR charts are available on NGIN as JWST-RVW-006193.

NIRCam Monthly charts are in NGIN shared files in the NIRCam folder.
