EIA 364-96-A-2017 PDF Download

The EIA 364-96-A-2017 standard outlines a test method that is specifically applicable to compliant pins inserted in printed circuit boards with plated-through holes (PTH). This standard provides guidelines and procedures for assessing the integrity of plated-through holes in electrical connectors, ensuring their reliable performance. The purpose of this testing is to verify that the plated-through holes are free from defects such as poor plating quality, insufficient hole-fill, or other imperfections that may impact the electrical connectivity or mechanical reliability of the connectors. Adhering to this standard helps ensure that the final product meets the required performance and quality standards for electrical connectors.
