1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 SCOPE
This document describes the functional and test requirements
for the PCI Express
TM
card-edge connector. The connector is
designed to meet the requirements of the PCI Express Card
Electromechanical Specification and certain customer
specifications not covered by the PCI-SIG document.

2.5.5Pad and trace design: pad and trace design shall follow
PCI Express standard as depicted in customer drawing.
2.6 SOLDERTAIL TERMINATION
Tests requiring termination of the soldertails to a PC
plated thru holes in the pattern specified in AFCI
customer drawing, shall be used.
2.6.2 Solder washers, AFCI part number 78523-001, shall be
applied to the tails, and the connector vapor phase
reflowed at 215°C (419°F) for a time not to exceed 2
minutes.
3.0 MECHANICAL REQUIREMENTS
3.1
EXAMINATION OF PRODUCT
Samples must comply to applicable FCI product prints.
3.2 INSERTION / WITHDRAWAL FORCE- ADD IN CARD
PER EIA-364-13
Mating cycle is with maximum/minimum thickness gage at a rate
of 25.4 mm/minute.
3.2.1 Maximum insertion force is 1.15 N max. per contact pair
when measured with a 1.70 +0.00/-0.01(0.067 +0.000/
-0.004 inches) thick hardened steel card made to the
dimensions shown for the PCI Express expansion board
in the FCI customer drawing. The card has a R0.05 min.,
R0.10 max.(sharpedge)and the surface roughness in
connector area to be 0.10 micrometers (4 microinches)
maximum.
3.2.2 Withdrawal force is 0.15N minimum per contact pair when
measured with a 1.44 +0.01/-0.00 (0.067 +0.004/-0.000
inches) thick hardened steel card made to the
dimensions shown for the PCI Express expansion board
in the FCI customer drawing. The card has a R0.05
min., R0.10 max (sharp edge) and the surface
roughness in the connector area to be 0.10 micrometers
(4 microinches) maximum.

Minimum retention force of terminals in the connector
housing to be 5N each. Pull rate to be 1.27 mm/min.
3.4 BOARD RETENTION / INSERTION FORCES
3.4.1 Board retention / insertion forces should be checked on
an 1.57 +/- 0.13 (0.062 +/- 0.005 inch) thick segment
of FR-4 glass / epoxy circuit board segment with a
hole of diameter as described below drilled through.
Connectors should have all contacts present. Forces
apply to connectors with plastic pegs and metal board
locks.
3.4.2 Maximum insertion force(including all types post or
straddle mount solder tails) to seat connector in
PCB(including straddle mount or through PCB)are:
36 pos
2.14 kg max.
64 pos
3.91 kg max.
98 pos
7.45 kg max.
164 pos
7.45 kg max.
3.5 SOLDERABILITY
Per J-STD-002
a. steam age for 1 hour
b. contact areas evaluated shall meet 95% minimum coverage.
4.0 ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
Unless otherwise specified, all measurements should be
performed in the following ambients:
relative humidity:
temperature:
barometric pressure:
4.1 LOW LEVEL CONTACT RESISTANCE
EIA-364-23
50% or less

4.1.1Solder connector to pc board per section 2.6 and insert card
per section 2.5
4.1.2Resistance measurements should be made from the underside of
the pc board to the PTH in the add-in card above the contact
pad. The test current shall be 100 milliampere d.c. max.
with a maximum open circuit voltage of 20 millivolts D.C.
See figure 1.0 for attachment of current and voltage leads.
4.1.3Requirement is 30 milliohms maximum initial, with change of 10
milliohms maximum after exposure testing.
