RE: voltage dip requirements

I did not check in this specific standard (yet) but normally both tests have different criteria for the EUT passing. The earlier has a B-type criterion and the latter (more severe has a C-type criterion. B means: continue to work after the dip (interference during may happen) C means: continue

Don, I'd recommend that you use a rules-based checker rather than a simulator. Cadence has a module, entitled EMControl which has a wide variety of rules already built-in. Note that most of them will probably not be applicable to your design and that you'll have to pick and choose judiciously.

ETS 300 386-2 requires a performance criteria R surge of 4kv Line-Ground for other than telecommuncations centres, ac power ports (Section 5.2.4.8). Keep in mind this standard only applies to Telecommunication Network Equipment, so depending on what you make, this may be irrelevant. Dave Heald

voltage dip requirements

2001-02-13 Thread JENKINS, JEFF
Hello Group, I just received a brand new, shiny copy of EN 61000-6-2. The voltage dip / interruption requirements are not clear to me. Table 4 quantifies dip and interruption levels as % reduction. So, when they say a 30% reduction, I assume they mean that the voltage is reduced to 70% of its

Hi Mark . . . I'll try to keep this brief, the EN 60825 Standard applies to the optical (laser or LED) portion of the product - AEL (Accessible Emission Level), wavelength, interlocks (if required), labelling, etc.. It does not address all the other 'product safety' parameters such as power

I use AC when it's required by standard. I also have used it on simple devices such as transformers. However I have changed some large SMPS transformers back to DC testing due to the high capacitive current load on the tester. A number of years ago I changed the routine test from AC to DC on
