CMC-PC Construction 

 

The CMC-PC is designed and constructed in accordance with the general  requirements of MIL-STD-454. 

 

Thermal Design  

The cooling of the components on the CMC-PC cards is accomplished by conduction. The cooling of the CMC-PC Power Supply and the Pentium chip are accomplished by  circulated air and by conduction through the aluminum  enclosure of the unit which is built as  an heat-sink.

 

External Connectors  

External connectors are used for interfacing  with the subassemblies or equipment and are in accordance with requirement of MIL-STD-454. Connector mating bodies are keyed, and keyed locations are varied  to prevent improper installation. 

 

Identification and Marking

The marking and labels of the equipment meet the requirements of MIL-M-13231. 

 

Moisture & Fungus Resistance

CMC-PC assemblies are moisture resistant and are not nutrients for fungi. The PC Cards are treated with Conformal coating for protection. The coating conforms to MIL-I-46058C.  

 

External Finishes  

The computer external surfaces are chemically treated  prior to painting. All residues and contaminants are removed prior to applying one coat of primer. The finish   is semi-gloss per FED-STD-595.  

 

Processes and Treatment  

Processes and treatments (welding, soldering, brazing   and corrosion (resistance protection) of the enclosure is in accordance with MIL-STD-454. 

Environmental Conditions

 

 

Temperature    

The CMC-PC  will not be damaged or affected by the effects of ambient air temperature as follows:

Operating

The CMC-PC  shall meet performance requirements specified herein after exposure to temperatures:

Standard temperature range  0° to 60°C .

Extended temperature  -40° to 70°C (with flash disk). 

Non-operating

(Storage and transportation) -40° to 85°C.

 

Sand and Dust

The CMC-PC  shall operate as specified herein while and after being subjected to sand and dust as encountered in dry arid arias. The CMC-PC shall meet the requirements specified in MIL-STD-810E.  

 

Salt Fog

The CMC-PC  is resistant to the corrosive effects of salt fog  environment. The  CMC-PC meets the requirements specified in MIL-STD-810E Method 509.3 Procedure I.  The base metal shall  not be visible through the finish or coating, nor shall  be any evidence of blistering, softening, separation from the base metal, corrosion products, or other coating failure.

 

Vibration

The CMC-PC is qualified according to MIL-STD-810F for airborne, ground and Naval environment.

 

Shock  

The CMC-PC  operates as specified herein after being subjected to operational shock as encountered on board (airborne,  naval) or during vehicular transport. Testing according to MIL-STD 810E, 40 g for duration of 11msec.

 

Relative humidity

The CMC-PC, in an operating or non operating condition, shall not be affected by humidity for both continuous and intermittent periods,  including conditions wherein condensation takes place in and on the equipment in the form of water.  The CMC-PC meets the requirements specified in MIL-STD-810E.

Operating - 95% RH  with no condensation.

Non-operating - 95% RH. 

 

Fungus

The CMC-PC  is non-nutrient to fungus growth. The CMC-PC  meets the requirements specified in MIL-STD-810E.

Electromagnetic Interference

 

The CMC-PC as specified with its PCI BUS, its internal boards,  and the computer’s components, disks and power supplies complies the requirements of MIL-STD-461C as follows:

 

CE03 - Electromagnetic emissions do not appear  on 60Hz  AC leads in excess of values shown  in MIL-STD-461C,  Fig 4-3. 

 

RE02 - Electromagnetic emissions are not radiated from the  CMC-PC equipment in excess of values shown in MIL-STD-461C, Fig 4-14, 4-15.  

 

RS03 - The CMC-PC does not exhibit any permanent degradation of performance or any deviation from its specifications when subjected to radiated electrical  of 1 Volts/meter from 14KHz to 10GHz.

 

CS02 - The CMC-PC does not exhibit any permanent degradation of performance or any deviation from its specifications when subjected to 100 Volt from a 50 ohm source to its AC power leads    

Maintainability

 

Interchangeability

The components of the CMC-PC  are physically and functionally interchangeable in accordance with MIL-STD-454. Parts or  components of the same part number procured to this specification are physically and functionally interchangeable  without selection, adjustment or fit.

 

Maintainability and Modularization

The CMC-PC  is designed such that it is completely maintainable by replacement of assemblies. 

Maximum use is made of plug  in module assemblies.

 

Reliability

The CMC-PC -PC has an MTBF of  10,000 hours at 25°C . Mean Time To Repair (MTTR) does not exceed 30 minutes.  The MTTR includes the time required to detect and isolate the failure,  replace the failed unit, checkout the repair and return the system to full operational status.
