RE: EMC for IR remotes
Would that fall under EN55013 instead of EN55022? Or will it be explicitly part of EN55032? -Doug From: emc-p...@ieee.org [mailto:emc-p...@ieee.org] On Behalf Of Bill Owsley Sent: Tuesday, February 15, 2011 7:05 PM To: PSNet; steve.leit...@comcast.net Subject: Re: EMC for IR remotes ummm, generally, I think previous posts indicate that the device only has to meet the directive, which is declared in a DoC.

ummm, generally, I think previous posts indicate that the device only has to
meet the directive, which is declared in a DoC. How the manufacturer
satisfies to himself that indeed the device does comply,is quite variable, but
a common set of tests are generally chosen.
For this particular device, hopefully there will be some feedback.

Hello,
Typical battery powered infrared remote controls, like those for your
television, are exempt from FCC Part 15 if they generate or use less than
1.705 MHz (unless the device can be operated also from the AC mains). Is
there a similar exemption for such devices in the EU, or must IR remotes be
subjected to radiated emissions and applicable immunity tests per, e.g.,
55022/24 or 55013/20 (depending on its use)?
Regards,
