What does IEC 62304 cl 5.3.2 - Develop an ARCHITECTURE for the interfaces of SOFTWARE ITEMS refers to?
What does ARCHITECTURE of the interfaces means?
Is it expecting descriptions of the methods instead of defining the actual interfaces? For examples, there are two MCUs and one SOFTWARE ITEM in each, for 5.3.2 it is about the communication protocol between the MCUs?
And for two SOFTWARE ITEMS in the same application communicate through a message queue, the message queue structure is the architecture of the interface?
Am I on the right track or totally wrong?
Thanks.
