Environment Specifications

This appendix describes the electrical, environmental, and mechanical specifications. It includes connector descriptions and pin outs, as well as illustrations of the board dimensions and connector locations.

This appendix contains the following topics:


A.1 Electrical and Environmental

The following sections provide tables and illustrations showing the electrical and environmental specifications.

A.1.1 Absolute Maximum Ratings

The following values are stress ratings only. Do not operate at these maximums. See Section A.1.2, Normal Operating Ranges for normal operating conditions.

*The MTBF will be significantly reduced if operated above 45˚ C for more than 96 consecutive hours.**The MTBF will be significantly reduced if operated above 30˚ C for more than 96 consecutive hours.


A.2 Reliability

Reliability prediction was done using Issue 1, Method I, Case 3 of the Telcordia Industrial Reliability program. The prediction assumed 25˚C operating temperature with 100% duty cycle, in a ground benign, controlled environment.


A.3 Mechanical

This section includes the mechanical specifications for dimensions and weight. The AMC.2-OP conforms to the PICMG AMC.0 single-width, full-height AMC form factor for all mechanical parameters.

A.3.1 Board Dimensions and Weight

The AMC.2-OP conforms to the PICMG AMC.0 single-width, full-height AMC form factor for all mechanical parameters. Mechanical dimensions are shown in the illustration and are outlined in the following table.
