# Industrial Specification: Format Detector

## 1. Technical Definition
A component that identifies and analyzes the structure and encoding of data files or streams.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.1-1000 Mbps data rate, -40°C to +85°C ambient temperature, 3.3V ±5% supply voltage**. Failure boundary: **Data rate exceeding 1200 Mbps causes signal integrity loss, temperature beyond -45°C or +90°C causes component drift, voltage below 3.135V or above 3.465V causes logic errors**, Mechanism: **Nyquist-Shannon sampling theorem violation at excessive data rates, semiconductor bandgap narrowing/thermal runaway at temperature extremes, CMOS transistor threshold voltage violation at supply voltage deviations**.

### 2.1 Analytical Physics Model
Governed by the **Combined Measurement Uncertainty**:

> **Primary Equation**: $u_c = \sqrt{\sum u_i^2}$
