# Industrial Specification: User Interface (Keypad &amp; Display)

## 1. Technical Definition
The human-machine interface component of a digital temperature controller, consisting of an input keypad and output display.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0-50°C ambient temperature, 4.5-5.5V DC supply voltage, 0-85% relative humidity non-condensing**. Failure boundary: **Display segment failure at 5.6V DC (exceeds 5.5V maximum rating), keypad membrane delamination at 60°C (exceeds 50°C maximum), LCD contrast degradation below -10°C (exceeds 0°C minimum)**, Mechanism: **Electrostatic discharge (ESD) exceeding 8kV damages CMOS ICs; thermal expansion coefficient mismatch (α=70×10⁻⁶/°C for PET membrane vs α=3×10⁻⁶/°C for glass substrate) causes adhesive failure; liquid crystal viscosity increase below nematic-isotropic transition temperature (T_NI= -15°C) reduces response time**.

### 2.2 FMEA (Failure Mode & Effects Analysis)
| Event Trigger | Severity | Failure Mode | Mitigation Strategy |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Electrolytic capacitor ESR increase to 0.5Ω (from initial 0.1Ω) due to 2000-hour operation at 45°C | 8 | Display backlight flicker at 120Hz (twice line frequency) | Polymer tantalum capacitor replacement with 5000-hour 105°C rating and 0.05Ω ESR |
| Tin whisker growth on PCB contacts exceeding 50μm length after 3 years at 40°C/60% RH | 8 | Keypad phantom inputs registering as simultaneous multi-key presses | Hot-air solder leveling (HASL) with 3% silver content or immersion gold (ENIG) finish |
