IEEE 1156.2-1996

This specification is designed for use in conjunction with other documents such as IEEE 1101.n (Mechanical Specification for Micro Connectors and Eurocard Form Factors), IEEE 896.n (Futurebus+), IEEE 1596 (Scalable Coherent Interface), IEEE 1014 (VME Bus), and IEEE 1296 (Multi Bus II). This standard is intended to be used as a core specification. It contains minimum environmental withstand conditions applicable to computer systems and all of their associated components. It has been created to provide general environmental withstand conditions for one or more of the above listed computer buses or interconnect standards, and electronic equipment in general. While this document was specifically created for use with IEEE Computer Society bus standards, nothing herein is intended to restrict its use for other applications, where applicable. A supplier and user may agree to more or less restrictive environmental specifications than those listed below. However, if their specifications are less restrictive than those listed herein, neither supplier nor user may claim conformance to this document.
