pressing stick for 1 second and repeated 5 times.
Terminal Strength A force of 1.0 Kg shall be applied to each terminal in the direction of the axis of
terminal for 30 ± 5 seconds.
LEADED A force of 250 gf is applied to each lead in axial direction. The lead shall be bent
90 degrees to one direction, then in opposite direction and returned to the
original position.
Solderability BOTH Lead terminals are immersed in methanol with 7 to 10% of rosin flux for about MIL-STD-202E
