It seems like only yesterday that I blogged about the new MIL-STD-883 J with Change Notice 3 on Microcircuit Testing… Actually it was on June 30th! (Here’s the link to my review of MIL-STD-883J with Notice 3.) And now there’s already a new MIL-STD-883 J with Change Notice 4!
Since I’ve reviewed the document a number of times, I won’t go over the basics of this test method standard. But I know you’d like to learn what’s behind this rapid release of another update. It turns out that in Test Method 2010, an error was inadvertently inserted into paragraph 3.1.1.1h. This revision corrects that error.
You may ask how you’re going to keep up with these types of changes. They’re hard to track and harder to disseminate throughout your organization. Well, Document Center has a solution for that! Our new Standards Online subscription access service may be the answer you’re looking for. Standards Online allows authorized access to the standards you use for multiple folks in your company. It’s a yearly subscription to online access for your custom collection of standards.
Let’s use MIL-STD-883 as an example of the benefits of the Standards Online service. If it was part of your collection, the new edition would have automatically been posted to your Standards Online collection when it was released. This means that your staff would have automatically been able to use the latest edition without you having to worry about it! And because this service provides online access, you can easily use your standards 24/7 where ever you happen to be!

The new Change 5 for MIL-STD-883 makes the following updates:
– Paragraph 3.1.22 was added to provide a definition for Acquisition documents,
– Method 2017 has been updated (for the internal visual test for hybrids).
– Method 2032 has been re-written with modified requirements for the visual inspection of passive elements.
