Measuring Cable Resonances With A Comb Generator
(October 28, 2016) Cables are one of the key metallic structures on a product that can act as an antenna and couple energy, causing radiated emissions and possible compliance test failures. This has been discussed extensively in the literature on product design for EMI compliance. In many cases, they can resonate at their half-wave frequency and actually amplify any harmonic … [Read more...]
October Released Standards
Reintech Laboratory has published a list of released standards by CENELEC, ETSI, IEC, and others for October 2016. Among them are new amendments for EN 55016 (Euro Norm equivalent of CISPR 16), a preliminary update to EN 61000-3-2 (power line harmonics), ETSI EN 302 537 V2.1.1 (ultra low power medical data service), and ETSI EN 301 559 V2.1.1 (for low power active medical … [Read more...]
