MECHANICAL INFORMATION
Electrical connection to the SOIC is made through
four pins that connect to the four press fitted sock-
ets at each end of the SOIC. Critical contact
points between the pins and sockets are gold-plat-
ed to resist oxidation. Internally, each socket con-
tains six independent contact fingers to form
redundant connections between the two compo-
nents. These sockets were designed with high
point contact force to provide the lowest possible
contact resistance. The SNAPHAT top also incor-
porates four molded-in retaining clips which hold
onto the ends of the SOIC insuring mechanical
and electrical connection even under severe me-
chanical shock and vibration. The combined SOIC
and SNAPHAT assembly can sustain shock levels
in excess of 100 g without separating. This pack-
age also passes variable frequency testing in ac-
cordance with MIL-STD-883, method 2007.2,
condition A.
Figure 2 illustrates the affect of repeated insertion
and extraction of the SNAPHAT top to the SOIC.
The force required to extract the SNAPHAT, and
then to re-insert it, reduces each time. After three
or four extractions, though, the reduction starts to
become unnoticeable, and the force required
remains at a fairly constant figure. Typically,
though, the SNAPHAT will only need to be
extracted and re-inserted once in its lifetime.
