low. Measure dissipation factor at 1
MHz when the capacitance is 1 pF to
1,000 pF, and at 1 kHz when the ca-
pacitance is greater than 1,000 pF. Dis-
sipation factor is equal to DF = 2πfRC,
where f is the test frequency, R is the
equivalent series resistance, and C is
the capacitance. For other capacitance
values, see Figure 1.

Failure Rate:
Type CMR capacitors
have specified failure rate levels rang-
ing from 0.01% to 1.0% per 1,000
hours. The failure rate level is estab-
lished at a 90% confidence level and is
referred to operational life at full-rated
voltage at maximum-rated tempera-
ture.
High-Voltage Stabilization:
We
subject capacitors with Failure Levels
M, P, and R to a burn-in at twice-rated
voltage, at rated temperature, for a
minimum of 48 hours. Capacitors that
show damage, arcing, breakdown, or
low IR are removed. We reject the lot if
more than 8% of the capacitors fail.

cycles for three solvent mixtures: Iso-

water/propylene-glycol mixture (Sol-
vent 4). The marking will not rub off or
smear and there will be no visible dam-
age to the capacitor body. Refer to MIL-
STD-202 for details.

Type CMR ,
High-Reliability, Mica Capacitors
will meet the requirements of
MIL-STD-202, Method 106F as outlined
here and diagrammed on the
right. Apply 100 V or the rated voltage
(whichever is less) to half of the
capacitors. Don’t apply voltage to
the other half. Refer to MIL-STD-
202 for details.
1. Dry capacitors for 24 hours in a
50±2 °C oven and then allow to
stabilize at room temperature.
2. Subject the capacitors to 20 24-
hour continuous cycles with
relative humidity and temperature
as shown.
3. 4 to 24 hours after completion of
the last cycle the capacitors will
show no visual damage and will
meet the after-test limits below.
