Secondary parallel contouring axes, (e.g., the w-axis on horizontal boring mills or a secondary rotary axis the centre line of which is parallel to the primary rotary axis) are not counted in the total number of contouring axes. Rotary axes need not rotate over 360 . A rotary axis can be driven by a linear device (e.g., a screw or a rack-and-pinion). 2. For the purposes of 8B201, the number of axes which can be co-ordinated simultaneously for contouring control is the number of axes along or around which, during processing of the workpiece, simultaneous and interrelated motions are performed between the workpiece and a tool. This does not include any additional axes along or around which other relative motions within the machine are performed, such as: a. Wheel-dressing systems in grinding machines; b. Parallel rotary axes designed for mounting of separate workpieces; c. Co-linear rotary axes designed for manipulating the same workpiece by holding it in a chuck from different ends. 3. Axis nomenclature shall be in accordance with International Standard ISO 841:2001, Industrial automation systems and integration - Numerical control of machines - Coordinate system and motion nomenclature. 4. For the purposes of 8A2, 8B2, 8C2, 8D2 and 8E2 tilting spindle is counted as a rotary axis. 5. 'Stated unidirectional positioning repeatability ' may be used for each machine tool model as an alternative to individual machine tests, and is determined as follows: a. Select five machines of a model to be evaluated; b. Measure the linear axis repeatability (R ,R ) according to ISO 230-2:2014 and evaluate unidirectional positioning repeatability for each axis of each of the five machines; c. Determine the arithmetic mean value of the unidirectional positioning repeatability -values for each axis of all five machines together. These arithmetic mean values of unidirectional positioning repeatability (UPR) become the stated value of each axis for the model (UPRx, UPRy, ) d. Since 8A2 refers to each linear axis there will be as many 'stated unidirectional positioning repeatability '-values as there are linear axes; e. If any axis of a machine model not specified by 8B201.a to 8B201.c has a 'stated unidirectional positioning repeatability ' equal to or less than the specified unidirectional positioning repeatability of each machine tool model plus 0.7 m, the builder should be required to reaffirm the accuracy level once every eighteen months. 6. For the purposes of 8B2, measurement uncertainty for the unidirectional positioning repeatability of machine tools, as defined in the International Standard ISO 230-2:2014, shall not be considered. 7. For the purpose of 8B2, the measurement of axes shall be made according to test procedures in 5.3.2. of ISO 230-2:2014. Tests for axes longer than 2 meters shall be made over 2 m segments. Axes longer than 4 m require multiple tests (e.g., two tests for axes longer than 4 m and up to 8 m, three tests for axes longer than 8 m and up to 12 m), each over 2 m segments and distributed in equal intervals over the axis length. Test segments are equally spaced along the full axis length, with any excess length equally divided at the beginning, in between, and at the end of the test segments. The smallest unidirectional positioning repeatability -value of all test segments is to be reported. 8B201 1.

TABLE - DEPOSITION TECHNIQUES - TECHNICAL NOTE Processes specified in Column 1 of the Table are defined as follows: a. Chemical Vapour Deposition (CVD) is an overlay coating or surface modification coating process wherein a metal, alloy, composite , dielectric or ceramic is deposited upon a heated substrate. Gaseous reactants are decomposed or combined in the vicinity of a substrate resulting in the deposition of the desired elemental, alloy or compound material on the substrate. Energy for this decomposition or chemical reaction process may be provided by the heat of the substrate, a glow discharge plasma, or laser irradiation. N.B.1 CVD includes the following processes: directed gas flow out-of-pack deposition, pulsating CVD, controlled nucleation thermal deposition (CNTD), plasma enhanced or plasma assisted CVD processes. N.B.2 Pack denotes a substrate immersed in a powder mixture. N.B.3 The gaseous reactants used in the out-of-pack process are produced using the same basic reactions and parameters as the pack cementation process, except that the substrate to be coated is not in contact with the powder mixture. b. Thermal Evaporation-Physical Vapour Deposition (TE-PVD) is an overlay coating process conducted in a vacuum with a pressure less than 0.1 Pa wherein a source of thermal energy is used to vaporize the coating material. This process results in the condensation, or deposition, of the evaporated species onto appropriately positioned substrates. The addition of gases to the vacuum chamber during the coating process to synthesize compound coatings is an ordinary modification of the process. The use of ion or electron beams, or plasma, to activate or assist the coating's deposition is also a common modification in this technique. The use of monitors to provide in-process measurement of optical characteristics and thickness of coatings can be a feature of these processes. Specific TE-PVD processes are as follows: 1. Electron Beam PVD uses an electron beam to heat and evaporate the material which forms the coating; 2. Ion Assisted Resistive Heating PVD employs electrically resistive heating sources in combination with impinging ion beam(s) to produce a controlled and uniform flux of evaporated coating species; 3. Laser Vaporization uses either pulsed or continuous wave laser beams to vaporize the material which forms the coating; 4. Cathodic Arc Deposition employs a consumable cathode of the material which forms the coating and has an arc discharge established on the surface by a momentary contact of a ground trigger. Controlled motion of arcing erodes the cathode surface creating a highly ionized plasma. The anode can be either a cone attached to the periphery of the cathode, through an insulator, or the chamber. Substrate biasing is used for non line-of-sight deposition. N.B. This definition does not include random cathodic arc deposition with non-biased substrates. 5. Ion Plating is a special modification of a general TE-PVD process in which a plasma or an ion source is used to ionize the species to be deposited, and a negative bias is applied to the substrate in order to facilitate the extraction of the species from the plasma. The introduction of reactive species, evaporation of solids within the process chamber, and the use of monitors to provide in-process measurement of optical characteristics and thicknesses of coatings are ordinary modifications of the process. c. Pack Cementation is a surface modification coating or overlay coating process wherein a substrate is immersed in a powder mixture (a pack), that consists of: 1. The metallic powders that are to be deposited (usually aluminium, chromium, silicon or combinations thereof); 2. An activator (normally a halide salt); and 3. An inert powder, most frequently alumina. The substrate and powder mixture is contained within a retort which is heated to between 1,030 K (757 C) and 1,375 K (1,102 C) for sufficient time to deposit the coating. d. Plasma Spraying is an overlay coating process wherein a gun (spray torch) which produces and controls a plasma accepts powder or wire coating materials, melts them and propels them towards a substrate, whereon an integrally bonded coating is formed. Plasma spraying constitutes either low pressure plasma spraying or high velocity plasma spraying. N.B.1 Low pressure means less than ambient atmospheric pressure. N.B.2 High velocity refers to nozzle-exit gas velocity exceeding 750 m/s calculated at 293 K (20 C) at 0.1 MPa. e. Slurry Deposition is a surface modification coating or overlay coating process wherein a metallic or ceramic powder with an organic binder is suspended in a liquid and is applied to a substrate by either spraying, dipping or painting, subsequent air or oven drying, and heat treatment to obtain the desired coating. f. Sputter Deposition is an overlay coating process based on a momentum transfer phenomenon, wherein positive ions are accelerated by an electric field towards the surface of a target (coating material). The kinetic energy of the impacting ions is sufficient to cause target surface atoms to be released and deposited on an appropriately positioned substrate. N.B.1 The Table refers only to triode, magnetron or reactive sputter deposition which is used to increase adhesion of the coating and rate of deposition and to radio frequency (RF) augmented sputter deposition used to permit vaporisation of non-metallic coating materials. N.B.2 Low-energy ion beams (less than 5 keV) can be used to activate the deposition. g. Ion Implantation is a surface modification coating process in which the element to be alloyed is ionized, accelerated through a potential gradient and implanted into the surface region of the substrate. This includes processes in which ion implantation is performed simultaneously with electron beam physical vapour deposition or sputter deposition.

For integrated circuits that contain analogue-to-digital converters and store or process the digitized data, see 8A3013.a.14. Technical Notes 1. A resolution of n bit corresponds to a quantisation of 2n levels. 2. The number of bits in the output word is equal to the resolution of the ADC. 3. The output rate is the maximum output rate of the converter, regardless of architecture or oversampling. 4. For 'multiple channel ADCs', the outputs are not aggregated and the output rate is the maximum output rate of any single channel. 5. For 'interleaved ADCs' or for 'multiple channel ADCs' that are specified to have an interleaved mode of operation, the outputs are aggregated and the output rate is the maximum combined total output rate of all of the outputs. 6. Vendors may also refer to the output rate as sampling rate, conversion rate or throughput rate. It is often specified in megahertz (MHz) mega words per second or mega samples per second (MSPS). 7. For the purpose of measuring output rate, one sample per second is equivalent to one hertz or one output word per second. 8. 'Multiple channel ADCs' are defined as devices which integrate more than one ADC, designed so that each ADC has a separate analogue input. 9. 'Interleaved ADCs' are defined as devices which have multiple ADC units that sample the same analogue input at different times such that when the outputs are aggregated, the analogue input has been effectively sampled and converted at a higher sampling rate. 8A301 a. 5. b. 45 [ Digital-to-Analogue Converters (DAC) having any of the following: 1.

'Spurious Free Dynamic Range' (SFDR) is defined as the ratio of the RMS value of the carrier frequency (maximum signal component) at the input of the DAC to the RMS value of the next largest noise or harmonic distortion component at its output. 2. SFDR is determined directly from the specification table or from the characterisation plots of SFDR versus frequency. 3. A signal is defined to be full scale when its amplitude is greater than -3 dBfs (full scale). 4. 'Adjusted update rate' for DACs: a. For conventional (non-interpolating) DACs, the 'adjusted update rate' is the rate at which the digital signal is converted to an analogue signal and the output analogue values are changed by the DAC. For DACs where the interpolation mode may be bypassed (interpolation factor of one), the DAC should be considered as a conventional (non-interpolating) DAC. b. For interpolating DACs (oversampling DACs), the 'adjusted update rate' is defined as the DAC update rate divided by the smallest interpolating factor. For interpolating DACs, the 'adjusted update rate' may be referred to by different terms including: input data rate input word rate input sample rate maximum total input bus rate maximum DAC clock rate for DAC clock input. ] 8A301 a. 6.

TECHNICAL NOTE ON 'ADJUSTED PEAK PERFORMANCE' ('APP') 'APP' is an adjusted peak rate at which digital computers perform 64-bit or larger floating point additions and multiplications. Abbreviations used in this Technical Note n number of processors in the digital computer i processor number (i,...n) ti processor cycle time (ti = 1/Fi) Fi processor frequency Ri peak floating point calculating rate Wi architecture adjustment factor 'APP' is expressed in Weighted TeraFLOPS (WT), in units of 1012 adjusted floating point operations per second. Outline of 'APP' calculation method 1. For each processor i, determine the peak number of 64-bit or larger floating point operations, FPOi, performed per cycle for each processor in the digital computer . Note In determining FPO, include only 64-bit or larger floating point additions and/or multiplications. All floating point operations must be expressed in operations per processor cycle; operations requiring multiple cycles may be expressed in fractional results per cycle. For processors not capable of performing calculations on floating point operands of 64-bit or more, the effective calculating rate R is zero. 2. Calculate the floating point rate R for each processor Ri = FPOi/ti 3. Calculate 'APP' as 'APP' = W1 x R1 + W2 x R2 + + Wn x Rn. 4. For 'vector processors', Wi = 0.9. For non-'vector processors', Wi = 0.3. Note 1 For processors that perform compound operations in a cycle, such as addition and multiplication, each operation is counted. Note 2 For a pipelined processor the effective calculating rate R is the faster of the pipelined rate, once the pipeline is full, or the non-pipelined rate. Note 3 The calculating rate R of each contributing processor is to be calculated at its maximum value theoretically possible before the 'APP' of the combination is derived. Simultaneous operations are assumed to exist when the computer manufacturer claims concurrent, parallel, or simultaneous operation or execution in a manual or brochure for the computer. Note 4 Do not include processors that are limited to input/output and peripheral functions (e.g, disk drive, communication and video display) when calculating 'APP'. Note 5 'APP' values are not to be calculated for processor combinations (inter)connected by Local Area Networks , Wide Area Networks, I/O shared connections/devices, I/O controllers and any communication interconnection implemented by software . Note 6 'APP' values must be calculated for processor combinations containing processors specially designed to enhance performance by aggregation, operating simultaneously and sharing memory; Technical Notes 1. Aggregate all processors and accelerators operating simultaneously and located on the same die. 2. Processor combinations share memory when any processor is capable of accessing any memory location in the system through the hardware transmission of cache lines or memory words, without the involvement of any software mechanism, which may be achieved using electronic assemblies specified in 8A403.c. Note 7 A 'vector processor' is defined as a processor with built-in instructions that perform multiple calculations on floating-point vectors (one-dimensional arrays of 64-bit or larger numbers) simultaneously, having at least 2 vector functional units and at least 8 vector registers of at least 64 elements each. 8A5 PART-1 TELECOMMUNICATIONS (SYSTEMS, EQUIPMENT AND COMPONENTS) Note 1 The status of components, test and production equipment and software therefor which are specially designed for telecommunications equipment or systems is determined in (8A501, 8B501, 8C5, 8D501 and 8E501) Part 1.
