Question 1.
What is the meaning of observability in electronic systems?
Show hintHide hint
Think about how we check the health of a system.
Question 2.
Define controllability in the context of system design.
Show hintHide hint
What do we do when we want to manipulate something?
3Question 3.
What is the primary focus of observability?
- To control inputs
- To monitor internal states
- Test access points
Show hintHide hint
Think about what visibility means in a debugging context.
4Question 4.
True or False: Controllability is only about monitoring signals.
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Reflect on the definitions we discussed.
Question 5.
You are tasked with designing a circuit for a new electronic device. How would you ensure both high observability and controllability? Discuss your design choices.
Show hintHide hint
Consider methods used in other designs discussed earlier.
Question 6.
Evaluate a current system in use. Identify areas where lack of observability or controllability can lead to potential failures and suggest improvements.
Show hintHide hint
Think critically about what the design might be missing.
