13、 RATING OF PARALLEL CIRCUITS TEST PROCEDURE FOR ELECTRICAL CONNECTORS AND SOCKETS (From EIA Standards Proposal No. 5179, formulated under the cognizance of EIA CE-2.0 Committee on National Connector Standards) 1 Introduction 1.1 Scope This procedure applies to connectors and sockets when multiple ci

14、rcuits are electrically connected in a parallel configuration and there is a need to determine the expected parallel resistance and or current rating. 1.2 Object 1.2.1 This standard establishes a procedure for determining the predicted parallel contact resistance of a connector or socket when multip

15、le circuits are connected in parallel. A statistical approach is employed to determine the parallel or effective contact resistance using empirical data from EIA connector test sequences such as EIA-364-1000. 1.2.2 The procedure for determining current rating of a connector or socket when multiple c

16、ircuits are connected in parallel will be added in the near future to this document. 1.3 Background Traditional methods for determining low level contact resistance limits for parallel circuits such as a worst case parallel resistance calculation employ extremely conservative calculations that produ

17、ce limits unlikely to be seen in actual application. This procedure outlines a more realistic method that is based on sound statistical principles and determines the parallel resistance limit with a percentile derived from calculations made using easily-obtained data. The limit calculated by this st

18、andard may be used by system designers to plan their voltage drop budget. Unrealistically high limits calculated with the previous method result in inefficient use of power resources in an application. Method A applies the Central Limit Theorem to parallel resistance distributions for low power leve

19、l applications. Method B applies to current rating of parallel circuits using distribution fitting and Monte Carlo simulation. EIA-364-112 Page 2 1.4 Prerequisites The proposed methods are not a substitute for common connector qualification practices. These methods rely upon said qualification test

20、data. In such tests, a maximum resistance and/or a maximum delta resistance limit will be applied to individual contact data. It is not appropriate the apply theses methods to products with open circuits or high resistances that do not meet these criteria. Connector products that do not meet these c

21、riteria should not be considered qualified for use in an application based solely upon its calculated parallel resistance. The connectors must meet a clear individual contact limit before a parallel resistance is calculated. 2 Definitions 2.1 Parallel circuit Two or more connector or socket circuits

22、 electrically connected together on both sides of the separable interface. 2.2 Central limit theorem A mathematical theorem that is central to the use of statistics. It states that for a random sample of observations from any distribution with a finite mean and a finite variance, the mean of the obs

23、ervations will follow a normal distribution. This theorem is the main justification for the widespread use of statistical analyses based on the normal distribution. 3 Test method 3.1 Method A, central limit theorem parallel contact resistance See annex A for an example and additional information. 3.

24、1.1 Identify the end-of-life low level contact resistance measurements, R, for each stress group in a typical connector qualification test. Calculate the mean ( R ) and standard deviation (sR) of the distribution of R for each test group. 3.1.2 Determine the number of contacts (n) in the parallel ci

25、rcuit for the connector of interest. 3.1.3 Calculate the expected parallel resistance ( pR ) through the connector of interest using the following formula. nRR p EIA-364-112 Page 3 3.1.4 Consideration may be given to analyzing the data per the actual use case. The computations for Rpwould use the ex

26、act contact positions planned in the final application. Alternately, if other contacts in the product are identical to those used in the final application, then that data could also be utilized. 3.1.5 Use the following formula to calculate the expected parallel resistance standard deviation (sp), fo

27、und by applying the central limit theorem. nnssRp3.1.6 Per the central limit theorem, assume the distribution of pR is normal. 3.1.7 Calculate the percentile of interest using pR and sp and normal probability according to the following formula. pp szRP +=993.1.8 The value of z comes from a z-table.

28、For the 99th percentile, z = 2.326. For a more conservative calculation, a t-table may be used rather than a z-table. When a t-table is used, the degrees of freedom equals n 1. 3.2 Method B, current rating of parallel circuits (Under development) 4 Details to be specified The following details shall

37、-3 A.3 Validation A.3.1 A Monte Carlo simulation can validate the results given above. The simulation method uses bootstrapped data points from the original raw data set with replacement. For a simulation meant to validate a 4-pin circuit, the simulation randomly selects 4 readings from a single str

38、ess group. The simulation calculates the parallel resistance of these 4 points and saves it. The simulation repeats this until 2,500 parallel resistances for the given pin count and stress group have been calculated. A.3.2 The Monte Carlo simulations produced the results given below.

A.5 Discussion

46、A.5.1 The method used here begins with the common formula to calculate individual parallel resistance values, Rp. It is typically used to find the total resistance across n resistors in parallel or, in the case of this paper, n contacts used in the particular parallel circuit. =niipRR111EIA-364-112

47、Page A-5 A.5.2 The form for calculating the expected value of the distribution of m of these parallel resistances is below. In the case of this paper, this distribution is of m connectors. 1mRRmjpjp= or substituting =mjjniipRmR11111. A.5.3 This form could be custom programmed into a script, though t

48、he approximation of its value as 1/n that of the arithmetic mean of the end-of-life resistances is close enough for this application and doesnt require any custom scripting or programming. Therefore we use the simpler version. nRR p A.5.4 The form for calculating the variance of the distribution of

49、Rp is: 1)(122=mRRsmjppjpor substituting 111111121112=mRmRsmjmjjniijniip. EIA-364-112 Page A-6 A.5.5 One attribute that the method leverages is that the Central Limit Theorem applies to pR the same as it would to R . Evidence that this is true comes from the Monte Carlo simulation used to validate the formulae. As the number of contacts in the circuit increases, the distribution of the parallel resistance means becomes more and more normal. Table A.5 Distr
