PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATION
CAPACITOR, FIXED, METALLIZED PLASTIC FILM DIELECTRIC,
(DC, AC, OR DC AND AC), HERMETICALLY SEALED IN METAL CASES OR CERAMIC CASES,
ESTABLISHED RELIABILITY, GENERAL SPECIFICATION FOR
This specification is approved for use by all Departments
and Agencies of the Department of Defense.
1. SCOPE
1.1 Scope. This specification covers the general requirements for established reliability (ER), metallized plastic
film dielectric, fixed capacitors, hermetically sealed in metal or ceramic cases. Capacitors covered by this
specification have failure rate levels (FRL) established in accordance with
MIL-STD-690.
The reliability for each level
is identified by a symbol in accordance with
table I.
These FRLs are established at a 90 percent confidence level and
maintained at a 10 percent producer's risk and, unless otherwise specified (see
3.1),
are based on life tests
performed at maximum rated voltage at maximum rated temperature. Unless otherwise specified (see
3.1),
an
acceleration factor of 5:1 has been used to relate life-test data obtained at 140 percent of rated voltage at maximum
rated temperature, to rated voltage at maximum rated temperature (see
6.1).
A part per million (PPM) quality system
is used for documenting and reporting the average outgoing quality of capacitors supplied to this specification.
Statistical process control (SPC) techniques are required in the manufacturing process to minimize variation in
production of capacitors supplied to the requirements of this specification.
1.2 Classification. Capacitors covered by this specification are classified by the style, as specified (see
3.1).
1.2.1 Part or Identifying Number (PIN). Capacitors specified herein (see
3.1)
are identified by a PIN which
consists of the basic number of the performance specification and a series of coded characters. The coded
characters provide information concerning the capacitors temperature coefficient, specification sheet number,
capacitance value, capacitance tolerance, voltage, case code, termination finish, and failure rate level. The PIN is in
the following form:

2.4 Order of precedence. Unless otherwise noted herein or in the contract, in the event of a conflict between the
text of this document and the references cited herein (except for related specification sheets), the text of this
document takes precedence. Nothing in this document, however, supersedes applicable laws and regulations unless
a specific exemption has been obtained.
3. REQUIREMENTS
3.1 Specification sheets. The individual item requirements shall be as specified herein and in accordance with the
applicable specification sheets. In the event of any conflict between requirements of this specification and the
specification sheets, the latter shall govern.
3.2 Qualification. Capacitors furnished under this specification shall be products which are authorized by the
qualifying activity for listing on the applicable qualified products list (QPL) before contract award. In addition, the
manufacturer shall obtain certification from the qualifying activity that the QPL system requirements of 3.3 and
4.2
have been met and are being maintained.
3
MIL-PRF-83421F
3.3 QPL system. The manufacturer shall establish and maintain a QPL system for parts covered by this
specification. Requirements for this system are specified in
MIL-STD-690
and
MIL-STD-790.
In addition, the
manufacturer shall establish a Statistical Process Control (SPC) and Part Per Million (PPM) system which meets the
requirements of 3.3.1 and 3.3.2, respectively. The following
MIL-STD-790
exception is allowed:
a. Under "Description of production processes and controls", the procedure for identification of each production
lot shall include only "the manufacturer shall as a minimum be able to identify the time period during which
the final production operation was performed on each item of product prior to final test. The date or lot code
marked on each part shall be identified to a production lot."
b. "Traceability" of materials shall not apply.
3.3.1 SPC system. As part of the overall
MIL-STD-790
QPL system, the manufacturer shall establish a SPC
system which meets the requirements of
JEDEC EIA-557.
Typical manufacturing processes for application of a SPC
include pre-assembly, assembly, encapsulation, and packaging.
3.3.2 PPM system. As part of the overall
MIL-STD-790
QPL system, the manufacturer shall establish a PPM
system for assessing the average outgoing quality of lots in accordance with
SAE EIA-554-1.
Data exclusion, in
accordance with
SAE EIA-554-1,
may be used with approval of the qualifying activity. The PPM system shall identify
the PPM rate at the end of each month and shall be based on a six month moving average.
3.4 Material. The material shall be as specified herein. However, when a definite material is not specified, a
material shall be used which will enable the capacitors to meet the performance requirements of this specification.
Acceptance or approval of any constituent material shall not be construed as a guaranty of the acceptance of the
finished product.
3.4.1 Impregnant. The impregnant shall be chemically inactive with respect to the capacitor element and the case.
The impregnant, either in the state of original application or as a result of having aged, shall have no adverse effect
on the performance of the capacitor. For liquid-impregnated capacitors, the same material shall be used for
impregnating as is used for filling.
3.4.2 Metals. Metals shall be of a corrosion-resistant type or shall be plated or treated to resist corrosion. Silver
plating shall not be used in any external portions of these capacitors.
3.4.2.1 Dissimilar metals. Where dissimilar metals are used in intimate contact with each other, provision shall be
made to provide protection against electrolysis and corrosion. The use of dissimilar metals in contact, which may
tend toward active electrolytic corrosion (particularly brass, copper, or steel used in contact with aluminum or
aluminum alloy), shall not be acceptable. However, metal plating or metal spraying of dissimilar metals to base
metals to provide similar or suitable abutting surfaces will be permitted (for example, the spraying of copper on
aluminum for soldering operations will be permitted). The use of dissimilar metals separated by insulating material
will also be permitted.
3.4.3 Pure tin. The use of pure tin, as an underplate or final finish, is prohibited both internally and externally. Tin
content of capacitor components and solder shall not exceed 97 percent, by mass. Tin shall be alloyed with a
minimum of 3 percent lead, by mass (see
6.7).
Lead-free, tin alloy high temperature solders may be used where high
temperature solder is necessary with the approval of the qualifying activity. The tin content of lead-free high
temperature solders shall not exceed 97 percent, by mass.
3.5 Interface and physical dimension requirements. Capacitors shall meet the interface and physical dimensions
specified (see
3.1).
3.5.1 Case. Each capacitor shall be enclosed in a hermetically-sealed case (see
3.1)
which will protect the
capacitor element from moisture, impregnant or filling compound leakage, and mechanical damage under all test
conditions specified herein.
4
MIL-PRF-83421F
3.5.2 Sleeving. The sleeving material shall not soften, creep, or shrink to a point where any part of the cylindrical
portion of the case is left uncovered at any test temperature specified herein. The sleeving shall not obscure the part
marking.
3.5.3 Leads. Leads shall be solderable and meet the requirements of
3.19.
3.5.3.1 Solder dip (retinning) leads. Only the manufacturer (or his authorized category B or C distributor) may
solder dip/retin the leads of product supplied to this specification provided the solder dip process (see

withstanding the potentials specified (see
3.1)
without permanent damage, open-circuiting or short-circuiting.
3.11 Insulation resistance. When capacitors are tested as specified in
4.7.7,
the following shall apply.
3.11.1 Terminal to terminal. When measured as specified in
4.7.7b(1),
the insulation resistance shall be not less
than the values specified (see
3.1).
3.11.2 Terminals to case (when case is not a terminal). When measured as specified in
4.7.7b(2),
the insulation
resistance between terminals and case shall be not less than the value specified (see
