environmental exposure when measured in accordance with EIA-364 TP45. The following details
shall apply:
A. Method of connection: Attach current and voltage leads as shown in Figure 1.0. The
resistance shall be measured from the solder tail of the header to the solder tail of the
receptacle.
B. Test Voltage: 20 millivolts DC max open circuit.
C. Test Current: Not to exceed 100 milliamperes.
6.3 INSULATION RESISTANCE
The insulation resistance of the mated connectors shall not be less than 1 gigaohm after
environmental exposure when measured in accordance with MIL-STD-202F, Method 302. The
following details shall apply:
A. Test voltage: 500 volts DC
B. Preparation: The connectors shall be mated but not soldered to a P.C. board.
C. Measurement points: The insulation resistance shall be measured between a minimum
of 10 adjacent and 10 opposing contacts per connector.
6.4 DIELECTRIC WITHSTANDING VOLTAGE
There shall be no evidence of arc-over, insulation breakdown or leakage current in excess of 1
milliampere when the unmated connector is tested in accordance with MIL-STD-202F, Method 301.
The following details shall apply:
A. Test voltage: 500 volts rms at 60 hz.
B. Test duration: 60 seconds

7.4.1 Solder the receptacle and header connectors to a printed circuit board.
7.4.2 Select the receptacle terminal positions to be measured.
7.4.3 Measure the maximum terminal gap between the selected positions and the opposite row
of terminals in the receptacle connector.
7.4.4 Measure the minimum width across the selected positions and the opposite row of
terminals of the header connector.
7.4.5 Using an "L" shaped probe, Lab Fixture Number MF149, Figure 2, deflect the contact
positions on the instron tester.
7.4.6 The minimum beam deflection occurs on the long row of terminals. Calculate the
minimum beam deflection as follows:
V = Minimum width across the header terminals.
W = Maximum gap between receptacle terminals.
Z = Deflection of terminals in the long row.
A = Number of terminals in the short row.
B = Number of terminals in the long row.
A*(V-W)
Minimum deflection (Z) = ------------
7.4.7 Starting at the bottom of the force-deflection curve where the terminal begins to deflect,
move up the curve a distance equal to the minimum deflection, Z, to find the minimum
normal force. Measure a minimum of 5 contacts per connector.
7.5 BOARD RETENTION
The force to remove the header and receptacle connectors from a P.C. board shall be no less than
10 lbs. when both the hold-downs and the terminal leads are soldered in place. The crosshead
speed shall be no greater than 0.2 inches per minute.
