Mil-PRF-49470 capacitors are preferred over DLA-DWG-87106 capacitors which has been
cancelled. The Mil-PRF-49470 specification was developed as part of a cooperative effort
between the US Military, NASA and the SMPS suppliers to produce a robust replacement
for the DLA drawing. The military specification product provides additional quality assurance
provisions that are NOT required by the DLA drawing. Two product levels are offered in Mil-PRF-49470: the standard “B” level (also referred
to as “M” level), suitable for standard Class “H” military applications, and the high reliability “T” level, suitable for Class “K” space
level applications. Some of the benefits of the Mil-PRF-49470 product over the 87106 product include: Formal qualification process
(QPL established); Mil-STD-790 compliance; DLA audits; routine qualification maintenance testing (ie., life testing); Group A percent
defective allowed (PDA) specified; prohibits mixing of chips from different production lots within a single SMPS stack lot.
Mil-PRF-49470 “T” Level product is recommended for all high reliability applications. Mil-PRF-49470 “T” level product requires inprocess
inspections and additional Group A and B screening inspections that are not part of the normal “B” level flow: In-process
screening that includes non-destructive internal examination (chip level) and destructive physical analysis (chip level); Group A destructive
physical analysis (finished stack level); Group B lot specific humidity, steady-state, low voltage (lot sample test); and Group
B lot specific thermal shock and life test (lot sample test).
