The 108 MHz is for equipment that are intentional radiators (10th harmonic, see 15.33 (a)(1) and 15.208 (f). For unintentional radiators it is the 5th harmonic (see 15.33 (b)(1)).
Be sure and read 15.35 (b) on the use of the proper detectors above 1000 MHz (uses 'average' and 'peak' detectors (not a 'quasi-peak' detector).

Heller/US-Corporate/3M/US) 11:50 AM Subject: RE: FCC part 15 section 109 Please respond to "Pettit, Ghery" Kristiaan, The test procedures of ANSI C63.4-2000 must be used, even when testing to the limits in CISPR 22. The 10 meter test distance is fine, but to the extent that the test methods differ, ANSI C63.4 must be followed. Don't forget that if the product has a clock higher than 108 MHz, testing above 1 GHz will be required to the FCC limits. The upper frequency will depend upon the actual maximum clock speed in the product. Ghery Pettit Intel -----Original Message----- From: kristiaan.carpent...@alcatel.be [mailto:kristiaan.carpent...@alcatel.be] Sent: Monday, March 25, 2002 8:41 AM To: emc-p...@majordomo.ieee.org Subject: FCC part 15 section 109 Hello group, Part 15, section 109, states that as an alternative to the radiated emission limits shown in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section, digital devices may be shown to comply with CISPR22 3rd ed. Further-on is stated that the testmethods of part 15 (referring to ANSI C63.4) apply. Question: If a lab performs Part 15 measurements for Class B devices below 1000MHz according to CISPR22:1997 with - the limits of CISPR22 - the procedures of CISPR22 - at a 10 meter distance as per CISPR22, Are these measurements performed in an correct way?
