EMC Compliance Testing-what’s the Point?
EMC Compliance Testing-what's the Point? Every electronic device must pass EMC Compliance Testing to make it to the market! The reason for this requirement is to lessen the amount of RFI/ EMI in our environment. More importantly, it is to lessen the RFI and EMI in our environment that adversely affects the function of other devices present in the shared electromagnetic environment. All electronic devices emit RFI/EMI. In general, electromagnetic interference doesn't cause a decrease in function of the devices...

RF Shielded Enclosures-Testing at Home!
RF Shielded Enclosures-testing at Home! Preparing for Final Compliance EMC Testing is difficult. One of the best ways to prepare for this test is to prepare your product during development. Testing your product in your home environment during development builds EMC into your device from the start and is the best way to proceed. Pre-Compliance EMC Testing can be done easily at your development site. It actually saves time in development, by intercepting EMC issues along the way rather than...

Large RF Shielded Enclosures-Giants!
Large RF Shielded Enclosures-Giants! I always say that VTT fabricates RF Shielded Enclosures to satisfy the needs of our customers, whether it's as small as our 3D Pouch, our "small test lab", or a much larger one. This year, we are receiving orders for "Testing Megastructures", very large testing enclosures. RF Shielded enclosures provide the low ambient RF environment required for Pre-Compliance EMC testing. The size of the testing enclosure is typically dependent on...

Small RF Shielded Enclosures-Petite!
Small RF Shielded Enclosures-Petite! RF Shielded Enclosures come in all sizes, from Megastructures to Gusseted bags! VTT is able to create RF Shielded Enclosures to satisfy their customer's needs. Electronic devices come in all sizes and must pass EMC Final Compliance Testing in order to be marketed. The Gusseted Bag is a small RF Shielded Test chamber that provides the low ambient RF environment required to perform EMC Testing. The bag, fabricated using conductive textiles,...

RF Shielded Enclosures-Made for You!
RF Shielded Enclosures-Made for You! RF Shielded Enclosures are used for testing electronic devices, mainly for EMC Compliance testing. EMC testing requires a low-ambient RF environment. Portable RF Shielded Enclosures provide this unique environment using the Faraday Principle. The Faraday Principle states that the fields within a conductive material cancel out any external fields, making the electric field inside the conductive material enclosure zero. The walls of a soft sided RF Shielded consist of

Testing Times demand logical Preparation!
Testing Times demand logical Preparation! So many things in our lives depend on test results! In my case, my Dental License depended on my Dental Board Exam results, passing is necessary to license! In the world of electronic devices, passing Final EMC Compliance Testing is necessary to market the device. Logical preparation dictates testing your device often during development in preparation for the "big day"! You know the EMC standards that your device must meet. Pre-Compliance EMC Testing in your...

Pre-Compliance EMC Testing-Smart Preparation!
Pre-Compliance EMC Testing-Smart Preparation! There are many important tests in life! Smart preparation makes tests easier to pass! If you are developing new electronic products for the market, you know that passing a Final EMC Compliance Test is necessary to market your product. Final Compliance Certification means that your product will fit in smoothly with the shared electromagnetic environment that it will function in. The best way to prepare your device for the Final EMC Compliance test is to perform...

EMC Concerns-Try Pre-Compliance Testing!
EMC Concerns-Try Pre-Compliance Testing! I am a worrier, I worry about any type of test that I am facing. It can be my physical, a licensing examination, you name it, I'll worry about it! My mother always felt that proper preparation was far better than worrying about the test. I agree with her approach in preparing for tests. She maintains that constant preparation leading up to the test is the best way to approach a test. I know from my...
