5.3.3 The body shall be plated in the contact area with 40 micro-inches (minimum) (150-200
Knoop Hardness) gold per MIL-G-45204, Type II, Grade C over 50 micro-inches
(minimum) nickel per QQ-N-290, Class 2. or
5.3.4 The body shall be plated in the contact area with 50 micro-inches (minimum) gold per MIL-
G-45204, Type II, Grade C over 50 micro-inches (minimum) nickel per QQ-N-290, Class 2.
5.3.5 Contact Spring:
The spring shall be plated with gold flash per MIL-G-45204.
5.3.6 Solder-tail:
The solder-tail will be plated with 3 micro-inches (minimum) gold flash over 50 micro-
inches (minimum) nickel, except for the vertical card connector with 30 micro-inches gold
in the contact area. The 30 micro-inch gold vertical card connector will have 100 micro-
inches (minimum) Tin Lead ( 93% ) over 50 micro-inches nickel on the solder-tail. Or will
have 100-160 microinches pure tin.
5.4 Design And Construction
Connectors shall be of the design, construction, and physical dimensions specified on the
applicable product drawing. The connector shall be a multi-piece assembly having one or two rows
of contacts with solder-tail terminations for installation in 0.035 inch diameter holes in a 1/16 thick
printed wiring board. The female end of the contact shall interface with 0.025 inch square pins on
0.100 or 0.150 inch centers, as appropriate
5.4.1 Mating: The connector shall be capable of mating and unmating by hand without the
use of special tools within the specified temperature range.
5.4.2 Workmanship: Connectors shall be uniform in quality and shall be free from burrs,
scratches, cracks, voids, chips, blisters, pin holes, sharp edges, and other defects that will
adversely affect life or serviceability.
5.4.3 Inter-change ability: The connector shall be capable of mating with any appropriately
constituted male connector of the same population without degradation in performance.
6.0 Electrical Characteristics:
6.1 Contact Resistance, Low Level (LLCR) - The low level contact resistance shall not
exceed the following when measured in accordance with EIA 364-23.
The following details shall apply:
a. Method of Connection - Attach current and voltage leads as shown
in Figure _1__.
b. Test Voltage - 20 milli-volts DC max open circuit.
c. Test Current – 1.0 milli-amperes DC ( Not to exceed 100 milli-amperes )
d. Sample Size – 20 % of connector population.
6.2 Contact Resistance, Specified Current - The contact resistance at a specified current shall not
exceed _(See Table 2 ) milli-ohms and milli-ohms after environmental exposure when measured
in accordance with EIA 364-06. The following details shall apply:
a. Method of Connection - Attach current and voltage leads as shown
in FIGURE __1__.
