An imaging OEM required a controlled-impedance AWG #40 micro-coax assembly, with the same verification discipline applicable to FAKRA programs.
- Challenge
- The drawing limits, fixture, and measurement method had to be aligned before production release and translated into a repeatable RF test gate.
- Solution
- Engineering aligned the impedance specification and test method with the customer's RF team, documented the acceptance criteria, and added a first-article VSWR sweep before each FAKRA production lot proceeds.
- Result
- The documented verification procedure provides a repeatable release gate for FAKRA and other impedance-sensitive RF programs.
- AWG #40 conductor
- documented impedance limits
- first-article VSWR sweep
- FAKRA and RF verification
