Hi Eric, Thanks for reminding us of checking Safety issues of Ethernet port. I have a few questions about the Ethernet port: 1. A phone line port has to comply with related regulations in Telecom world. In my recollection, PC industry just added an Immunity requirement to the phone line port.

I would hope for a new EMC standard. Can you imagine being the "host" for testing this IC under EN55024? -Original Message- From: Regan Arndt [mailto:regan_ar...@hotmail.com] Sent: Thursday, July 13, 2000 1:11 PM To: k...@nortelnetworks.com; mpeder...@midcom-inc.com; barry...@altavista.c

If the IC contains a Voice/Fax/data modem type device, where will they implant the paper & toner for the fax? And what Safety (& environmental) issues will that raise? This is all very disconcerting. -Original Message- From: Grant, Tania (Tania) [mailto:tgr...@lucent.com] Sent: Thursday,

Years ago, one of the storage devices at the company I worked for, had a motor-start capacitor on the AC fan (that's how long ago it was!). This fan was an alternate vendor and we did not have many of them, and "conveniently", this particular fan was not part of the configuration that went thro

Barry et al, Certainly, we're adding more Ethernet based data acquisition and control products all the time. The applicable EMC standard is still the relatively new product family standard EN 61326-1, with it's counterpart for safety EN 61010-1. The Ethernet port has overvoltage features that s

It's just another new product. We'll have to work out the bugs. After all, we already have ICs implanted in our hearts, or at least nearby (pacemakers and defibrillators), and in our ears (cochlear implants). It'll be useful to have a calculator at the ready. I wonder if we'll choose algebraic o
