EM TEST EFT 500 Series 3.3. Coupling decoupling network The decoupling part of the coupling network has to: - filter the interference pulses in the direction to the power supply; - protect other systems that are connected to the same power supply and - realize a high impedance of the power supply, e.g.
EM TEST EFT 500 Series 3.4. Burst Test Setup - The test generator and the coupling network should be connected to the reference ground plane (acc. to high frequency requirements). - The equipment under test must be isolated from the reference ground plane. The distance should be 10cm.
To avoid such disturbances in the following paragraphs some information is given to which the operator has to taken care: - EM TEST generators are tested with the maximum test level. If no damage has been occurred the equipment must be seen as immune.
