EM TEST EFT 500Nx Series 4.3. 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. -
Page 17: Burst Test Setup
EM TEST EFT 500Nx Series 4.4. 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. -
Page 18: Computer Setup For Eft/Burst Testing
To avoid such disturbances in the following paragraphs some information is given to which the operator has to take care: - EM TEST generators are tested with the maximum test level. If no damage has been occurred the equipment must be seen as immune. - Page 19 EM TEST EFT 500Nx Series For conducting the test the following points shall be taken under consideration: 1. It is not allowed to touch the EUT or the cables under test during a running test. The test results will be influenced and are no more reproducible.
