# Industrial Specification: Priority Evaluator

## 1. Technical Definition
A component within Priority Handler systems that analyzes and determines task or process priority levels based on predefined criteria.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0-5 VDC input signal range, 4-20 mA output current range**. Failure boundary: **Input signal exceeding 5.5 VDC causes comparator saturation, output current exceeding 22 mA triggers thermal shutdown**, Mechanism: **Semiconductor junction breakdown at 5.5 VDC reverse bias voltage, thermal runaway in output transistors at 150°C junction temperature**.

### 2.2 FMEA (Failure Mode & Effects Analysis)
| Event Trigger | Severity | Failure Mode | Mitigation Strategy |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Electrostatic discharge (ESD) event exceeding 8 kV HBM | 8 | Gate oxide rupture in CMOS logic circuits | Integrated ESD protection diodes with 0.5 μm snapback spacing |
| Ambient temperature cycling between -40°C to 85°C at 10°C/min rate | 8 | Solder joint fatigue failure due to CTE mismatch (17 ppm/°C vs 23 ppm/°C) | Underfill epoxy with 12 GPa modulus and 28 ppm/°C CTE |

## 3. Key Technical Parameters
