1、Designation: F 1663 09Standard Test Method forDetermining the Capacitance of a Membrane Switch1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F 1663; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A

2、 number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of capaci-tance(s) of a membrane switch.1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of

3、 thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2. Terminology2.1 Definitions:2.1.1 membrane switcha momentary swit

Significance and Use3.1 Capacitance testing is useful for design verification,quality control of materials, and workmanship.3.2 High c

5、apacitance may interfere with the reliable perfor-mance of interface electronics.3.3 Specific areas of testing are, but not limited to:3.3.1 Conductor/dielectric/conductor crossing point,3.3.2 Close proximity of conductors, and3.3.3 Any other conductive surface such as shielding ormetal backing pane

6、l.4. Interferences4.1 The following parameters may affect the results of thistest:4.1.1 Humidity,4.1.2 Contamination,4.1.3 Barometric pressure, and4.1.4 Temperature.5. Apparatus5.1 Electronic Test Instrument, for measuring very smallcapacitance (pico-farad range).6. Procedure6.1 Pretest Setup:6.1.1

7、Suspend the switch specimen in air or otherwiseisolate it from any interfering affects.6.1.2 Attach to the capacitance measuring instrument anynecessary leads, probes or connectors required to connect themembrane switch assembly for measurement. Place test leadsas close to test points as possible wi

8、thout physical connection.(This will reduce any variations due to lead positioning).6.1.3 Record the capacitance reading indicated on the in-strument to equal capacitance (Ci) (this is the capacitance ofthe test setup).6.2 In-Process Test:6.2.1 Connect test leads to the test points.6.2.2 Record the

9、capacitance reading indicated on the in-strument to equal total capacitance (Ct) (this is the totalcapacitance of the switch and device.7. Calculation7.1 Calculate the capacitance of the switch specimen asfollows:Capacitance Cs! 5 Ct2 Ci8. Report8.1 Report the following information:8.1.1 Temperature

Precision and Bias9.1 P

13、recisionIt is not possible to specify the precision ofthe procedure in Test Method F 1663 for measuring capaci-tance because inter-laboratory studies have proven inconclu-sive due to insufficient participating laboratories with theappropriate equipment.9.2 BiasNo information can be presented on the

14、bias ofthe procedure in Test Method F 1663 for measuring capaci-tance because no standard sample is available for this industry.10.
