24、that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. The main task of IEC technical committees is to prepare International Standards. In exceptional circumstances, a technical committee

25、 may propose the publication of a technical specification when the required support cannot be obtained for the publication of an International Standard, despite repeated efforts, or the subject is still under technical development or where, for any other reason, there is the future but no immediate

26、possibility of an agreement on an International Standard. Technical specifications are subject to review within three years of publication to decide whether they can be transformed into International Standards. IEC TS 61586, which is a technical specification, has been prepared by IEC technical comm

27、ittee 48: Electrical connectors and mechanical structures for electrical and electronic equipment. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1997. This edition constitutes a technical revision. PD IEC/TS 61586:2017 4 IEC TS 61586:2017 IEC 2017 The main technical changes

28、 with regard to the previous edition are as follows: A specific “basic” testing protocol is defined which utilizes a single test group subjecting connectors to multiple stresses. Additional information is provided concerning test acceleration factors. A discussion of the limitations of providing MTT

29、F/MTBF estimates for connectors has been added. The bibliography has been expanded. The text of this technical specification is based on the following documents: Enquiry draft Report on voting 48/563/DTS 48/568/RVC Full information on the voting for the approval of this technical specification can b

PD IEC/TS 61586:2017IEC TS 61586:2017 IEC 2017 5 INTRODUCTION The reliability of electronic assemblies depends on the reliability of t

33、he passive electrical connections between the active components, as well as on the reliability of the components themselves. There is a common perception that interconnections, specifically connectors, are a major source of failures, often of the “no fault found“ variety, in electronic assemblies. W

34、hether this perception is true is not the subject of this technical document, but connector reliability is a concern. Much of the increasing attention being given to reliability of electrical connectors focuses on the basic question of how the reliability of electrical contacts and connectors can be

35、 meaningfully determined. The definition of reliability which will be assumed in this document is the following: The probability of a product performing a specific function under defined operating conditions for a specified period of time. Reliability is therefore a function of: a) The expected life

36、time of the part. b) The application stresses (electrical, thermal, mechanical, chemical, etc.) the part will be subjected to during its life. c) The specified failure criteria. Since these factors will be different for every application in which the connector may be used, a given connector will hav

37、e a different reliability for every application in which it may be used. Therefore, a connector manufacturer cannot provide a reliability estimate for a contact or connector until the customer has provided a detailed description of the factors listed above for the application in which the connector

38、will be used. To provide a numerical estimate of connector reliability, the manufacturer will then need to use the information provided by the customer to design a test program to simulate the application intended. Some factors which are to be taken into account in addressing this definition are the

39、 subject of this document. The reliability assessment methodology to be discussed centres on appropriate statistical analysis of test data, based on proper consideration of the following issues. d) The active degradation mechanisms are to be identified and categorized by their importance for the app

40、lication. e) Appropriate environmental tests, with cor responding acceleration factors, where practical and appropriate, and exposures, are to be determined for these degradation mechanisms. f) Use of a test sequence which provides an opportunity for the interaction of the potential degradation mech

41、anisms as is necessary to realistically simulate the effects of the expected application. g) The statistical approach to estimating reliability from the test data is to be agreed upon. h) An acceptance criterion appropriate for the application of interest is to be established. Items d), e and f) rel

42、ate to the ability of the product to continue to perform its designated function under the degradation mechanisms it is subjected to in its operating environment. In addition, the need for an acceleration factor is fundamental to assessing the operating life of the product. Item g) is necessary, sin

43、ce the reliability definition is based on probability which requires statistical treatment of appropriate data. Finally, item h) is a result of the fact that the reliability to be assessed is based on the product performing a defined function. The level of knowledge and understanding available to ad

44、dress these issues varies appreciably. Each topic is considered in a separate subclause. PD IEC/TS 61586:2017 6 IEC TS 61586:2017 IEC 2017 It is to be noted that there are a number of other factors w hich have an effect on connector reliability. Among these are: i) the connector manufacturing proces

45、s; j) assembly/application procedures of the equipment manufacturer; k) abuse/misuse of the equipment by the end user. The importance of these application or extrinsic factors cannot be denied and may well be the final determinants of connector reliability. However, extrinsic factors are highly vari

46、able and, therefore, difficult to account for in any estimation of reliability. For these reasons, this document will focus on intrinsic connector reliability, i.e. the reliability of the design/materials of the connector itself as evaluated by the procedures listed previously. This intrinsic reliab

47、ility represents the greatest reliability which the connector can achieve. Th e extrinsic factors will result in a reduction in reliability. It is also to be noted that the approach to reliability estimation in this document differs significantly from that based on a base failure rate which is modif

48、ied by application- specific factors as, for example, in IEC 60863 or MIL Handbook 217. The two approaches are related in that the base failure rate could be determined by a different statistical treatment from the same data which are used in assessing reliability by the method to be discussed. The

49、test environments and exposures would determine the standard conditions which are defined for the base failure rate. In addition, the derating factors used in the failure rate approach can, in principle, be derived from the same data used to determine acceleration factors in the proposed statistical method. The advantage of the approach recommended in this document is that the standard conditions, acceptance criteria, and statistical treatment are specifically defined for the applicati
