Examination of Product Where specified, samples were visually examined for evidence of physical damage detrimental to product performance. 3.2. Termination Resistance, Low Level Termination resistance measurements at low level current were made using a four terminal measuring technique (Figure 1). The test current was maintained at 100 milliamperes DC with an open circuit voltage of 20 millivolts DC. WT Figure 1 Typical Termination Resistance Measurement Points 3.3, Dielectric Withstanding Voltage A test potential of 1000 volts AC was applied between the adjacent contacts. This potential was applied for one minute and then returned to zero. 3.4. Insulation Resistance Insulation resistance was measured between adjacent contacts, using a test voltage of 500 volts DC. This voltage was applied for two minutes before the resistance was measured. 3.5. Temperature Rise vs Specified Current Connector temperature was measured, while energized at the specified current of 4.77 amperes DC. Thermography was used to measure connector temperatures. This temperature was then subtracted from the ambient temperature to find the temperature rise. When three readings at five minute intervals were the same, the readings were recorded. 3.6. Vibration, Sine Mated connectors were subjected to sinusoidal vibration, having a simple harmonic motion with an amplitude of 0.06 inch, double amplitude or 20 G's (whichever is less). The vibration frequency was varied logarithmically between the limits of 10 and 2000 Hz and returned to 10 Hz in 20 minutes. This cycle was performed 12 times in each of three mutually perpendicular planes, for a total vibration time of 12 hours. Connectors were monitored for discontinuities greater than one microsecond, using a current of 100 milliamperes in the monitoring circuit. Rev A 4 0f7 Form 404-34 20Nova6Ai- 501-334 3.7. Physical Shock Mated connectors were subjected to a physical shock test, having a half-sine waveform of 50 gravity units (g peak) and a duration of 11 milliseconds. Three shocks in each direction were applied along the three mutually perpendicular planes, for a total of 18 shocks. The connectors were monitored for discontinuities greater than one microsecond, using a current of 100 milliamperes in the monitoring circuit. 3.8. Mating Force The force required to mate individual connectors was measured using a tensile/compression device and a free floating fixture. The crosshead rate of travel was 0.5 inch/minute. 3.9. Unmating Force The force required to unmate individual connectors was measured using a tensile/compression device and a free floating fixture. The crosshead rate of travel was 0.5 inch/minute. 3.10. Durability Vertical pin headers and R/A receptacles were mated and unmated 250 times at a rate not exceeding 100 cycles per hour. R/A receptacles were mated and unmated 100 times at a rate not exceeding 100 cycles per hour. 3.11. Thermal Shock Unmated connectors were subjected to 5 cycles of temperature extremes with each cycle consisting of 30 minutes at each temperature. The temperature extremes were -55 and 125C. The transition between temperatures was less than one minute. 3.12. Humidity-Temperature Cycling Unmated connectors were exposed to 10 cycles of humidity-temperature cycling. Each cycle lasted 24 hours and consisted of cycling the temperature between 25C and 65C twice while the relative humidity was hetd at 95% as illustrated in Figure 2.
