The HiRel Products Group has also established standard, cost-effective screening programs known as the QIRL and OM803 program. Standard "off the shelf," Space, JANTXV or JANTX level product can be designated as QIRL. These products are fully compliant with all screening and Quality Conformance Inspection (QCI) requirements of MIL-PRF-19500 for Space, JANTXV or JANTX levels. They meet the same data sheet electrical and mechanical specifications, and are produced and tested on a JANS qualified line. The OM803 screening program was developed to offer low-cost screening to our customers while using methods and conditions defined in MIL-STD-750 and MIL-STD-883. The OM803 screening program is performed on all Omnirel standard products.

Note 1: Level 2 devices- burn-in time is 48 hours minimum, Level 3 devices - burn-in time is 160 hours minimum.
Note 2: PDAs apply to burn-in and post electricals only.
Note 3: When ordering "P" level devices, the letter "P" is not marked on the device.
