CAPACITANCE

Reference MIL-STD-202 Method 305:

Test Frequency: 1000Hz

Temperature: +25°C

Capacitance Change -vs -Temperature

Acceptance Limits:

@ -55°C = +2% Maximum Change

@ +25°C = ±0.10% Maximum Change

@ +105°C = -2.5% Maximum Change

DISSIPATION FACTOR

Reference MIL-STD-202 Method 306:

Test Frequency: 1000Hz

Temperature: +25°C

Acceptance Limit: .10% Maximum

INSULATION RESISTANCE

Reference MIL-STD-202 Method 302:

Electrification shall be at rated voltage or

500VDC, whichever is less and for a time

not greater than 2 minutes.

Test                         Megohms X mf        Megohms

Temperature           Minimum                 Need not exceed

@ +25°C                 100,000                   200,000

@ +85°C                 5,000                       20,000

@ +105°C               1,000                       5,000

DIELECTRIC ABSORPTION

Reference MIL-PRF-19978F

Acceptance Limit: .03%

VOLTAGE RATING

100% of listed voltage rating from -55°c to +105°C

VOLTAGE TEST

Reference MIL-STD-202 Method 301: Surge current is limited to 1 ampere maximum. Voltage applied for 1

minute (maximum) @ 25°C. Ground test is performed terminal to case (where the case is not a terminal)

at 200% of the DC voltage rating. Dielectric strength test is performed terminal to terminal at 150% of the

DC voltage rating.
