iNEMI End-of-Project Webinar: Connector Reliability Test Recommendations
February 23, 2024 | iNEMIEstimated reading time: 1 minute
The iNEMI Connector Reliability Test Recommendations Project, Phases 1 through 3, addressed the need for a standardized reliability evaluation method for connectors. Existing connector reliability testing standards do not address the full range of connector applications nor have the necessary detailed, defined test conditions and sequences required. The project was driven by the need for a more complete understanding of a component’s reliability to determine whether it could potentially have more uses/applications than it was initially designed and tested for, particularly if additional data shows the component can be used in harsher environments.
Phase 1 defined levels of interconnect (connector level) and recommended a physics of failure test approach. In Phase 2 the team defined a set of stress levels and specific test conditions to use when evaluating connector performance.
The Phase 3 team modified the methodology defined in Phase 2 and applied it to two types of connectors: USB-C and SP3 socket. The intention of the modified testing methodology was to perform “tests to failure” to allow reliability estimates to be calculated. This end-of-project webinar will review the development of the test cycles for the connector types addressed, discuss the actual testing and results, plus identify lessons learned and possible next steps.
