The test procedure shall be as follows: After insertion into the oven, the crystal oscillators shall be stabilised at an ageing temperature for 48 hours prior to beginning the measurement acquisition (unless otherwise specified). The frequency of each unit shall be measured immediately after the stabilisation period, and then a minimum of four times per week at intervals of at least 20 hours for a minimum of 30 days.

The measurements obtained shall be fit using the method of least squares to the function: f(t) = A (ln(bt + 1)) + f 0 where f(t) is the frequency of the crystal oscillator, t days after the start of the ageing cycle (the time origin for measurements analysis shall be the beginning of the stabilisation period), and A, B and f 0 are constants to be determined from the least squares fit. For monotonic ageing, all the measurements shall be used for the curve fitting. If the ageing trend is not monotonic, the measurement period shall be extended to 40 days or longer after the extreme in the ageing trend, and the measurements from 12 days after the extreme is reached to the end of the ageing measurement period shall be fit to the above function (unless otherwise specified). The total frequency change and the ageing rate at the end of the specified period shall be determined from the above equation using the constants determined from the least squares fit. The square root of the least squares fit variance of the measurements form the curve-fit function shall not exceed 5 percent of the total ageing change allowed during the test period. The following test details shall apply: a) Ageing temperature: +70 C or highest specified operating temperature, whichever is lower b) Ageing temperature tolerance: 3 C (unless otherwise specified) c) Ageing temperature measurement tolerance (stability): 0.2 C (unless otherwise specified) d) If a projected total frequency change for a period (such as 1 year) is specified, the measurement periods shall be 30 days or longer, and a linear extrapolation shall be used form the end of the ageing measurement period using the coefficients determined from a least squares fit to the measurements, as described below in this Paragraph. The projected total frequency change for one year, unless otherwise specified, shall be determined by means of a linear extrapolation from the end of the ageing measurement period using the coefficients determined from the least squares fit. That is, for the total ageing measurement period of T a, in days (where T a is 30 days or longer). A B f 1 yr 365 Ta ft a B T 1 where A ln B T 1 ft a a a 21

22 If a projected total frequency change for a period other than one year is specified, the calculation shall be similarly performed, i.e., a linear extrapolation shall be used from the end of the ageing measurement period using the coefficients determined from the least squares fit DESTRUCTIVE PHYSICAL ANALYSIS MIL-STD-883, method SALT ATMOSPHERE MIL-STD-883, method 2009 condition A 22
