Capability:
How capable is avionics system?
can they do the job and even more?
Designer to maximize the capability of the system
within the constraints that are imposed.
Reliability:
Designer strives to make systems as reliable as
possible.
High reliability less maintenance costs.
If less reliable customer will not buy it and in
terms of civil airlines the certificating agencies
will not certify it.
Maintainability:
Closely related to reliability
System must need preventive or corrective
maintenance.
System can be maintained through built in
testing, automated troubleshooting and easy
access to hardware.
Availability:
Combination of reliability and maintainability
Trade of between reliability and maintainability to
optimize availability.
Availability translates into sorties for military
aircraft and into revenue flights for civil aircrafts.
Certificability:
Major area of concern for avionics in civil airlines.
Certification conducted by the regulatory
agencies based on detailed, expert examination
of all facets of aircraft design and operation.
The avionics architecture should be straight
forward and easily understandable.
There should be no sneak circuits and no
noobvious modes of operation.
Avionics certification focus on three analyses:
preliminary hazard, fault tree, and FMEA.
Survivability:
It is a function of susceptibility and vulnerability.
Susceptibility: measure of probability that an
aircraft will be hit by a given threat.
Vulnerability: measure of the probability that
damage will occur if there is a hit by the threat

Risk:
Amount of failures and drawbacks in the design
and implementation.

proof technique to overcome both developmental
and long term technological risks.

Instruction set
General registers:
8-bit B and 8-bit C registers can be used as one 16-bit BC register pair.
When used as a pair the C register contains low-order byte. Some
instructions may use BC register as a data pointer.
8-bit D and 8-bit E registers can be used as one 16-bit DE register pair.
When used as a pair the E register contains low-order byte. Some
instructions may use DE register as a data pointer.
8-bit H and 8-bit L registers can be used as one 16-bit HL register pair.
When used as a pair the L register contains low-order byte. HL register
usually contains a data pointer used to reference memory addresses.
The processor has 5 interrupts. They are presented below in the order
of their priority (from lowest to highest):

MECHANICAL SYSTEM
Variations in aerodynamic derivatives
across flight envelope are compensated
by auto-stabilisation gearing.
Problems arise at the corners of flight
envelope
Lags in aircraft response to the steering
commands from the autopilot affect the
stability and limit the loop gain to be
used.
