Abstract
The mechanical packaging design of any large electronic system can have a profound effect on the cost of the system and on its operating reliability. This article describes the no. 1 ESS packaging design and discusses the considerations which influenced it. Printed wiring packaging techniques are used for the individual circuit packs. A new connector and multiple board mounting, which allow considerable flexibility and a high degree of package density, were designed specifically for this application. A test program has established that the connector will perform reliably for a 40-year design life.Keywords
