A fellow nextdoor has been digging in those questions for years. Maybe you
can find something useful.

Richard,
I am surprised to hear that you "seldom pass a SIR qualification otherwise"
using the Telcordia spec for SIR, because at Nortel we used Telcordia (or
Bellcore for us old guys) and even set a higher resistance cut-off and used
an IPA/toluene mixture to pull stuff into solution to put on the coupons and
we passed most stuff. BUT that was using an average.

I use a running average, and any failures I document as to why. For example,
if there was a portion of the comb pattern that has excess solder that
caused a lower than average reading, or even a reading less than the minimum
required, but there was no evidence of any flux residue, dendritic growth,
etc, as a result of failure to clean, then I discount or exclude that
particular reading and note it on the qualification document. Strictly going
by the Telcordia requirements, I would seldom pass a SIR qualification
otherwise.

Subject: [TN] Interpretation of SIR Requirements
TechNetters,
In GR-78-CORE, Issue 1, 1997, SIR Test Procedure 13.1.3.2 R13-6 [808], it
states (capitalization mine) "The average insulation resistance (megohms),
for EACH SAMPLE GROUP, taken at 24 hours and again at 4 days, shall be
greater than the minimum specified in table 13-4.
In IPC J-STD-004B, 3.4.1.4.1 Reporting SIR Test Results, the first criteria
for passing the SIR test is: "All SIR measurements on all test patterns
shall exceed the 100 Mohm requirements."
My questions are as follows:
1) In the Telecordia document, what constitutes a "sample group"? One comb
pattern? All the comb patterns on one coupon? All the coupons being used to
test one material?
2) For the IPC method does the criteria apply to the readings at the end of
the test? First and last? At every measurement? The document seems vague to
me.
