RE: Earth / ground symbol

Amund, I believe that you are looking at this the wrong way. The question should be what is the smallest diameter symbol which can be seen under normal circumstances. This size would be different under different conditions - viewing distance, lighting, etc. You should look for d

RE: ROHS date in Europe for Exemption End

All exemptions are granted until 2010, when they come up for review. The text appended to that particular exemption is toothless, redundant wording, probably "bureacrateeze" or lost-in-translation. Regards, Chris From: Barker, Neil [mailto:neil.bar...@e2v.com] Sent: 09 October 2007 15:53 To:

RE: ROHS date in Europe for Exemption End

Chris, In general I agree with what you have stated, but one specific exemption relating to the use of lead in solders in servers, storage systems, etc specifically states 2010, not just 4 years on from 2006. However, it does not state when in 2010, and as you say, all exemptions are due for revie

RE: ROHS date in Europe for Exemption End

All directives have to be reviewed every 4 years, so 2010 is just 4 years on from date of first implementation - the results of any review will be published in due course and only then will you know any specific date relating to changes in exemption status. Regards, Chris From: emc-p...@ieee.o

Earth / ground symbol

The ground /earth terminal symbol in IEC60950-1 referers to 60417-2-IEC-5019. 1) Has the symbol a required minimum size? 2) Is it any minimum requirement for the size of the circle in this symbol (minimum diameter)? Thanks. Best reagrds Amund Westin Oslo, Norway - This message is from the IEEE

Re: Class II PSU for IT power systems

Rich, My view is a product for an IT power system should have its mains insulation selected based on the phase to phase voltage of the supply. While most designs are based on normal, not fault conditions for the product, the IT power system is faced with fault conditions caused by any or all prod
