Keysight and Raditeq Sign Memorandum of Understanding for Improved EMC Testing. With the rapid adoption of automotive electronics, validating the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of system components has become a crucial step in ensuring they interoperate properly for the safety and functionality of vehicles. Auto makers need intensive EMC testing to make sure unintentional electromagnetic interference (EMI) and electromagnetic susceptibility (EMS) remain within specified limits and that electronic components are immune to interference from external electromagnetic sources. This is a complex task that requires smart and efficient EMC testing as well as holistic management of EMC lab operations. https://lnkd.in/gdz-U_J4 Keysight Technologies #Keysight #Raditeq #EMCTesting #ElectromagneticCompatibility #EMI #EMS #AutomotiveElectronics #TestManagement #RadiMation #PathWave #LabManagement #TechCollaboration #AutomatedTesting #LabWorkflow #ElectronicsTesting

Our brand-new in-house EMC test chamber is finally ready to go! Some weeks ago we celebrated the completion of our new EMC test chamber. Now, we have the license to operate, and we couldn't be happier. But what does this mean for us? Let's explore the world of Radiated Emission and Immunity! 🔍Radiated Emission and Immunity: An EMC chamber shields external radiation, allowing developers to measure emissions solely from the electronic components under test! At ZF Passive Safety Systems external testing laboratories were previously responsible for this task. Now, it is a new chapter and a crucial step in ensuring product reliability. 🔬 Developmental Testing: Our integrated approach to electronic development spans every phase of product development. From prototype setups during concept phases to component testing during development phases, our goal is to guarantee interference-free operation at every stage. Watch the video to learn how this advancement will simplify our testing process and enhance our products! #EMC #Innovation #electronics #PassiveSafetySystems #seatbelts #airbags #steeringwheels #automotiveindustry #ZF #SavingMoreLives

📣Thrilled to Pioneer a New Era! Independent EMC Testing Launches at ZF Passive Safety Systems. It's done now! We are delighted to announce that the Alfdorf location's EMC (electromagnetic compatibility) test facility is now complete. This marks a major milestone for R Division, as it is our first in-house solution for independently running EMC tests. The EMC chamber is specifically designed to shield external radiation, allowing for the measurement of radiation emitted solely by the electronic component under test. Not only that, but the chamber can also test the robustness of certain components against external electromagnetic radiation, known as interference immunity. “We are confident that this new solution will help us to improve the efficiency of our EMC testing”, says Dr. Thomas Meinders, the Head of Verification & Validation Electronics at ZF Passive Safety Systems. Dr. Meinders also highlights the importance of a dedicated EMC chamber, which facilitates a cross-departmental comprehension of interference susceptibility during component development stage. He concludes: "We are signalizing that our company has the issue of electromagnetic susceptibility under control and will continue to gather independent experience in this area.” More about ZF Passive Safety Systems: https://bit.ly/464TXjQ #EMCChamber #ElectronicsTesting #GameChanger  #PassiveSafety #Seatbelt #Steeringwheel #Airbag #SavingMoreLives

Do Vicor DC-DC Converters fit Medical Applications ? AC/DC medical rectifiers require compliance to IEC/EN 60601-1 safety standard (and its collateral IEC/EN 60601-1-2 4th edition for EMI). Even if you select the right 2xMOPP IN-OUT isolated power supply (4000 Vac), with 1xMOPP OUT-PE isolation (1500Vac), you normally have a limitation on the possibility to use CF (Cardiac Floating) Applied Parts because of too high leakage current, exceeding the limits of 10uA in normal conditions (NC) and 50 uA in single fault conditions (SFC). In case such a leakage current somehow associated to IN-OUT parasitic cross capacitance, bypassing the reinforced input-output isolation, it could be useful to add an additional isolated DC-DC converter before the output. Such a converter will be helpful either for reducing the leakage current or for facilitating the EMI compliance so tough to be achieved with low value Y-Cap (Class I systems). Vicor, with its zero voltage switching (ZVS) and Sine Amplitude Converter (SAC) technology can help a lot enabling CF applications providing up to 4,242 Vdc additional isolation with 96% peak efficiency and fully regulated output with a very limited footprint. Isolated but non-regulated solutions available as well in case the application requiring higher peak efficiency levels and voltage conversion.
