4. VERIFICATION
4.1 Classification of inspections. The inspection requirements specified herein are classified as follows:
a. Qualification inspection (see 4.2).
b. Screening (see 4.3).
c. Conformance inspection (see 4.4 and tables I and II).
4.2 Qualification inspection. Qualification inspection shall be in accordance with MIL-PRF-19500 and as specified
herein.
4.2.1 JANHC and JANKC qualification. JANHC and JANKC qualification inspection shall be in accordance with
MIL-PRF-19500.
4.2.2 Group E qualification. Group E inspection shall be performed for qualification or re-qualification only. In

table III tests, the tests specified in table III herein that were not performed in the prior revision shall be performed on
the first inspection lot of this revision to maintain qualification.
* 4.2.2.1 Group E thermal response. With extremely small junction devices such as this one, a true thermal

impedance” herein, the terms, units, and procedures are essentially unchanged. Each supplier shall submit a thermal
response (ZθJX) histogram of the entire qualification lot. The histogram data shall be taken prior to the removal of
devices that are atypical for thermal response. Thermal response curves (from ZθJX test pulse time to RθJX minimum
steady-state time) of the best device in the qual lot and the worst device in the qual lot (that meets the supplier
proposed screening limit), or from the thermal grouping, shall be submitted. The optimal test conditions and proposed
initial thermal response screening limit shall be provided in the qualification report. Data indicating how the optimal
test conditions were derived for ZθJX shall also be submitted. The proposed maximum thermal response ZθJX
screening limit shall be submitted. The qualifying activity may approve a different ZθJX limit for conformance
inspection end-point measurements as applicable. Equivalent data, procedures, or statistical process control plans
may be used for part, or all, of the above requirements. The approved thermal response conditions and limit for ZθJX
shall be used by the supplier in screening and table I, subgroup 2. The approved thermal resistance conditions for
RθJX shall be used by the supplier for conformance inspection. For product families with similar thermal
characteristics based on the same physical and thermal die, package, and construction combination (thermal
grouping), the supplier may use the same thermal response curves.

NOTES:
1. Test fixture is the circuit as described on figure 4.
2. RF power source may be any unit capable of generating desired power level at desired frequency with a
harmonic and spurious content at least 20 dB below operating frequency level.
3. The RF isolator may be any device (pad, circulator, ect.) capable of establishing at least 20 dB of isolation
(RL > 20 dB) between RF source and test fixture.
4. Variable attenuators (or fixed if calibrated): Attenuator on directional coupler number 2 shall be calculated
against known working standard either by means of calibration chart or suitable adjustment if variable.
Attenuator at position "A" of directional coupler number 1 shall be calibrated or adjusted so that actual
power at test fixture is known. Attenuator at position "B" shall be adjusted to establish sensitivity needed to
measure VSWR.
5. RF switch may be eliminated if additional power meters are used.
PROCEDURE:
a. Remove "test fixture" and install jumper between directional coupler number 1 and directional coupler
number 2.
b. Set the RF switch to power output position "C".
c. Adjust frequency and power of RF source, as required by specification, and monitor frequency
counter and RF power meter respectively (see note 4).
d. Set the RF switch to position "A" and adjust variable attenuator to obtain identical reading as power
out in position "C" (see note 4).
e. Reconnect "test fixture" in test setup and insert device.
f. Adjust power supply to 28 V dc.
g. Adjust circuit output tuning for maximum power gain and circuit input tuning for maximum VSWR. (Switch
between power in; VSWR, and power out while tuning and repeat as many times as necessary to obtain
minimum VSWR and maximum power out. Check power in level before taking final reading. Minimum
VSWR is defined as minimum reading obtained on power meter with switch in position "B" and maintaining
power in.)

5. PACKAGING
5.1 Packaging. For acquisition purposes, the packaging requirements shall be as specified in the contract or order
(see 6.2). When packaging of materiel is to be performed by DoD or in-house contractor personnel, these personnel
need to contact the responsible packaging activity to ascertain packaging requirements. Packaging requirements are
maintained by the Inventory Control Point's packaging activities within the Military Service or Defense Agency, or
within the Military Service’s system commands. Packaging data retrieval is available from the managing Military
Department's or Defense Agency's automated packaging files, CD-ROM products, or by contacting the responsible
packaging activity.
6. NOTES
(This section contains information of a general or explanatory nature that may be helpful, but is not mandatory.
The notes specified in MIL-PRF-19500 are applicable to this specification.)
6.1 Intended use. Semiconductors conforming to this specification are intended for original equipment design
applications and logistic support of existing equipment.
6.2 Acquisition requirements. Acquisition documents should specify the following:
a. Title, number, and date of this specification.
b. Packaging requirements (see 5.1).
c. Lead finish (see 3.4.1).
d. The complete PIN (see 1.5 and 6.5).
e. For acquisition of RHA designed devices, table II, subgroup 1 testing of group D is optional. If subgroup 1
testing is desired, it should be specified in the contract.
6.3 Qualification. With respect to products requiring qualification, awards will be made only for products which are,
at the time of award of contract, qualified for inclusion in Qualified Manufacturers List (QML 19500) whether or not
such products have actually been so listed by that date. The attention of the contractors is called to these
requirements, and manufacturers are urged to arrange to have the products that they propose to offer to the Federal
Government tested for qualification in order that they may be eligible to be awarded contracts or orders for the
products covered by this specification. Information pertaining to qualification of products may be obtained from
DLA Land and Maritime, ATTN: VQE, P.O. Box 3990, Columbus, OH 43218-3990 or e-mail vqe.chief@dla.mil. An
online listing of products qualified to this specification may be found in the Qualified Products Database (QPD) at
