3 Test Specimens The test specimen can take one of sev-
eral forms depending on the application, but it must contain at
least one transmission line (or interconnect) test structure and
be representative of the actual PB product. Four definite types
of specimens are described in 3.1.1 through 3.1.4. The trans-
mission lines to be measured may be of either stripline or
microstrip construction.
3.1 Test Specimen Examples
3.1.1 Example 1
Test specimens are representative PBs
selected out of a lot of fabricated product. In some cases, this
sample set may contain all PBs in the lot. Agreed upon func-
tional and nonfunctional transmission lines on the PB are used
as the test set for this specimen. The selection of lines that
form the test set must be based on these criteria (nonexclu-
sive):
a. Inclusion of the PB’s critical features
b. Accessible line terminations for measurements
c. Absence of line branching
d. Absence of impedance changes within the transmission
line under test
e. Representation of controlled characteristic impedance Z
0
signal layers
3.1.2 Example 2 Test specimens are representative fabri-
cated PB samples or entire lots as in 3.1.1. The test lines used
in these specimens are nonfunctional lines designed into the
PB for easy termination and connection to TDR equipment.
Such test lines should be designed to include critical features
typical of functional lines and should lie in the controlled Z
0
signal layers of the application.
3.1.3 Example 3 Test specimens are test coupons cut
from representative fabricated PB samples or entire lots. The
test coupons are cut from the master PB at the time the indi-
vidual PBs are separated. Such test coupons will have one or
more nonfunctional transmission lines with termination suited
for TDR testing. Such test lines should include critical features
typical of functional lines and will be fabricated in the same
configuration and structure as the master PB on the same
controlled Z
0
signal layers as the application.
3.1.4 Example 4 Test specimens are a sample of the sub-
strate laminate to be characterized before PB manufacturing
and fabrication. The test line fabrication on these specimens
may involve laminating several PB layers together in the same
manner anticipated for PB manufacture.
3.2 Identification of Test Specimen For specimens of
types called out in 3.1.1, 3.1.2, or 3.1.3, each specimen shall
be identified with no less than a PB part number, PB serial
number, and date code. Specimens of the type called for in
3.1.4 must include the lot or panel identification for the sub-
strate laminate being evaluated.
3.3 Conditioning Environmental conditioning prior to test
may be called for as part of the test. When conditioning is
required, test specimens shall be stored before testing at 23
+1/-5 °C and 50 ± 5% RH for no less than 16 hours. If a dif-
ferent conditioning procedure is required, it must be specified
and documented in test reports.
3.4 Test Interconnect Placement The ability to correlate
propagation delay values derived from measurements of non-
functional test lines to propagation delay values of functional
lines is directly related to the proximity of the nonfunctional
test structure to the functional lines. The closer the test and
functional lines, the more likely the nominal material properties
will be the same. The placement of test structures on the PB
or panel should be analyzed for each PB design and be based
on the propagation delay tolerance and practicality of the lay-
out. When deciding on the best test interconnect placement,
consider the following placement priorities:
1) Inside the functional area of the PB;
2) At the edge of the PB but outside the functional circuit
area; or

3) Outside of the PB area and at the center or edge of the
panel.
If coupons are placed in all the locations listed above, a com-
parison between a statistically significant sample set taken
from each location over time can yield data that will relax
placement requirements without reducing confidence in test
results.
3.5 Test Interconnect Geometry The test structures
should use the same line width and conductor thickness, and
be located in the same dielectric environment (permittivity,
thickness, and layering) as the target functional interconnects.
Spacing between conductors should also match that of the
functional interconnects. If edge coupons are used, and pre-
vious studies have shown that conductors at the edge of the
panel experience different lamination from those in functional
panel areas, then a compensation factor may be needed to
adjust the propagation delay measurement for this difference.
3.6 Lengths for Two-Line Test Structure When using
two nonfunctional transmission lines as the test structures,
thenominal physical lengths of the transmission line pair
should be 76.2 mm [3.0 in] and 152.4 mm [6.0 in]. Variations
in test structure lengths shall be documented.
3.7 Transmission Line Termination Transmission lines
are to be terminated at both ends using PTHs to allow electri-
cal connections to both ends of the line. Additionally, PTH ter-
minations at both ends provide for DC and low frequency
measurements of resistance, capacitance, conductance, and
inductance as additional diagnostic tools in the event of an
out-of-specification condition.
3.8 Contact Land The contact land should comprise PTHs
and contact pads as shown in Figure 3-1. Reference contact
lands should be square to aid in visual identification. The
nominal hole diameter shall be 0.46 mm [0.018 in] and sur-
face land shall be 1.02 mm [0.040 in]. However, the PTH
should be of consistent dimensions to ensure repeatability
and reliability of the tests for the given measurement equip-
ment. Care must be used when specifying different hole sizes
and land pitches since their electrical properties may affect the
reported t
D
in a secondary manner. Hole size should be larger
only if required by plating/aspect ratio requirements. Ideally,
hole and pad size should be the same as those of functional

interconnects, but a practical issue of operator ability to use
hand-held probes may be considered. Test reports must
report any deviation from the nominal contact land and PTH
geometry.
3.9 Contact Land Pitch Whenever possible, the center-
to-center distance between the signal and reference lands
of the test interconnect should be consistent to simplify
probing requirements and ensure measurement repeatability
and reproducibility. Nominal center-to-center pitch shall be
1.91 mm [0.075 in]. The use of different contact and probe
pitches must be specified and documented.
3.10 Single-Signal Conductor Transmission Line The
single-signal conductor transmission line is also known as the
single-ended, unbalanced, and asymmetrical structure. The
probing area for these lines should consist of a contact land
(see Figure 3-2) for each signal line. The contact land should
provide connection to the reference, or ground, connection for
the test structure. This method requires the use of one con-
tact pitch to ensure measurement consistency between the
test structures of the specimen.
3.11 Orientation The contact land orientation (placement
and angle of the contact land of the signal line relative to the
contact land of the reference plane) must be the same for all
test interconnects of the specimen in order to ensure mea-
surement consistency between test interconnects.
3.12 Test Interconnect Routing
a. The test interconnects shall only be routed over and under
contiguous ground and voltage planes following controlled
line impedance guidelines (see IPC-2141). The test inter-
connects must not extend into PTH clearance areas.
b. The test interconnects shall be kept at least six times the
width of the signal conductor or 2.5 mm [0.0984 in],
whichever is greater, from any PTHs and any other inter-
connect on the same plane. All conductive material (such
as copper nomenclature, copper thieving, etc.) shall be
kept at least 2.5 mm [0.0984 in] from each test intercon-
nect.
c. Test interconnects shall be straight or contain gradual and
rounded bends.
3.13 Nomenclature Labeling of all test interconnect con-
tact lands on at least one surface layer is required for opera-
tor identification during manual probing operations. The label
shall minimally contain information about which signal layer
the test interconnect is modeling (for example, L1-3in, L1-6in,
etc.). Nomenclature should be etched in copper and be
spaced a minimum of at least six times the width of the signal
conductor (of the test interconnect) or 2.5 mm [0.0984 in],
whichever is greater, from the test interconnect area. When-
ever practical, the terminations at both ends of test intercon-
nect shall be marked.
