Fundamental Oscilloscope Probes
As electronics have become more advanced, so has the equipment used to measure their signal behavior and system performance. In the realm of EMC compliance, oscilloscopes are one of the important tools used to measure signals, hunt down noise sources, and identify time-domain measurements that may contribute to radiated or conducted emissions. Without a properly selected probe, … [Read more...]
The Voltage Rises
Santa Rosa, California, July 24th, 2023 – In the past, automobiles had minimal electrical systems and relied mainly on mechanical systems. Today, there are many electrical functions such as seat heating and cooling, comfort systems, and assistance systems that draw a lot of electricity from the battery. In a 12V vehicle electrical system, higher and higher currents must flow. … [Read more...]

Summary of Military and Aerospace EMC Tests
INTRODUCTION Military and aerospace EMC tests cover a wide range of products. While the standards, including limits and test methods may differ, all EMC test standards have a few things in common. The most basic are the limits for emissions and the types and levels of susceptibility testing. Emissions tests (and their associated limits) are put in place for military and … [Read more...]
Protecting RF, Receiver, Analog and Control Line Input Circuits Against The RTCA DO-160 Pin Injection Lightning Test
ABSTRACT Circuits are described that effectively protect RF, receiver, analog, and control line input circuits from three types of transient injection, described in DO-160, directly into the input pin of the connector. The goal was to achieve a circuit which would not adversely affect the performance of the RF circuit over an input frequency range of 20MHz to above 1GHz … [Read more...]
Placing a Metal Plate in Front of a EUT May Not Be Enough to Solve Radiated Emissions Exceedances or Radiated Susceptibility Failures
EXAMPLE OF AN EUT WHICH HAS FAILED RADIATED SUSCEPTIBILITY As described in reference 1, the EUT was exposed to a radiated immunity test at a level of 20V/m. The side which contained a vertical metal plate, with an approximately 0.3m x 0.3m dimension and which was electrically isolated from a metal baseplate failed at 12V/m and 300MHz. On the other sides of the EUT, … [Read more...]
New! UHS: Compact and Powerful SMD Fuse for High Current SELV Applications
Santa Rosa, California – SCHURTER announces the launch of its new UHS, a compact fast-acting SMT fuse designed to safely interrupt high-energy overcurrent in the SELV range. The new UHS is available in six current ratings from 50-100 A at 50 VDC or 32 VDC, with a breaking capacity of up to 2000 A. SELV, which stands for "Safety Extra Low Voltage," may sound straightforward and … [Read more...]
