APPENDIX A: Description of product

A.1 General overview A.1.1 CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION (ST-Ex-H-C-001, Rev. 1.1 and/or Rev. 1.0): The product is battery powered (single ½ AA Size Lithium/Thionyl Chloride Cell). The battery includes solder tabs for both polarities. The solder tabs directly connect to the bottom of the PCB Assembly. There is only one PCB Assembly. The positive (+) battery has three separate branches through three current- limiting resistors (22Ω, ±5%, 1W, 2512): R37 makes supply “VD” (Only on Rev 1.1, Rev 1.0 makes “VM” directly from “VD”; All Analysis/Tests Based on Rev 1.1 which is Most Severe), R42 makes the “High Voltage Area” supply (Piezo Buzzer Circuit), and R44 makes supply “VM”. The “High Voltage Area” (Piezo Buzzer Circuit) includes a switched capacitor DC-DC Converter (U3) that drives the Piezo. The CPU14 connection of the “High Voltage Area” includes voltage clamping to prevent excessive voltages from becoming present on any other circuits. The maximum voltage inside the “High Voltage Area is limited only by the function of the switched capacitor DC-DC supply. Other than isolation/separations, there are no other protective features.

In accordance with UL 913, Edition 5; four (4) cell spark ignition trials using new cells were performed. The spark ignition test sequence was comprised of the following (Cal circuit consisted of 24VDC Supply and 95mH Inductor): 1. Calibration/Verification Of Test Gas Mixture; 2. Spark Ignition Test Of new Cell (Positive Polarity); 3. Spark Ignition Test Of new Cell (Negative Polarity); 4. Spark Ignition Test Of new Cell (Positive Polarity); 5. Spark Ignition Test Of new Cell (Negative Polarity); 6. Calibration/Verification Of Test Gas Mixture. Test Equipment Multimeter: M065S; Cal Due: 6/9/2011 Environmental Monitor: T1256; Cal Due: 10/12/2011 Timer: Q107; Cal Due: 1/10/2012 Rev Counter: Q108; Cal Due: 1/10/2012 Flow Meter: F263; Cal Due: 8/24/2011 Multimeter: M075S; Cal Due: 1/13/2012 Oxygen Analyzer: O193; Maintenance: 2/12/2011 Test Conditions Temperature: 24°C Humidity: 26% Pressure: 951hPa Acceptance criteria 10.5.3 (a), Spark ignition of cells and No ignition of test gas 10.1 batteries Test Results 10.5.3 (a) Spark ignition of cells and 1. Calibrate Before Test (20-21mA): PASS batteries Ignition At: 20 Seconds / 24 Revs; 2. Positive Polarity (1): No Ignition At 209 Revs; 3. Negative Polarity (1): No Ignition At 204 Revs; 4. Positive Polarity (2): No Ignition At 204 Revs 5. Negative Polarity (2):; No Ignition At 202 Revs; 6. Calibrate After Test (20-21mA): Ignition At: 19 Seconds / 22 Revs.
