Pre-Compliance Testing-great Development Tool!
Pre-Compliance Testing-great Development Tool! The same is true in electronic product development. All new electronic products must pass EMC Compliance tests to determine their ability to function properly in our device rich world. Every device emits an electromagnetic field and every device has to work flawlessly in the same shared electromagnetic environment. RFI/EMI emissions can affect the device's performance. There are RFI/EMI emission standards for every class of device so that they don't adversely affect the other devices in...

The Remarkable Evolution of EMC!
The Remarkable Evolution of EMC! Electromagnetic Compatibility EMC is a critical field that has evolved significantly from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. In its infancy, EMC was primarily concerned with ensuring that radio communication and early electrical devices could operate without interference. Today, EMC plays a pivotal role in the design and the regulation of electronic systems, their emissions, and their susceptibility to emissions, that define our modern world. In the early 20th century, the advent of radio...

Smart Development includes Pre-Compliance Testing!
Smart Development includes Pre-Compliance Testing! During product development, it is smart to consider EMC Pre-Compliance Testing. Every electronic device must pass Final EMC Compliance Testing prior to going to market. Failure of this test means "back to the drawing board" for your product for "tweaking" prior to making it to the market. The quicker the Testing is successfully completed, the faster it can be marketed! Another great reason for testing early and often during development is that Pre-Compliance testing makes...

VTT Helps during “Testing Times”!
VTT Helps during "Testing Times"! We all go through "Testing Times" in our lives. In the electronic business, we think of product development as a very important "testing time". New electronic devices must undergo and pass Final Compliance Testing prior to marketing. VTT believes that the most important testing is Pre-Compliance EMC Testing. Performing EMC testing early and often during development allows you the luxury of building EMC into your device during a step-by-step development process. Correcting EMC issues during...

Pre-Compliance EMC Testing-Worth the Time!
Pre-Compliance EMC Testing-Worth the Time! Developing a new product? Build EMC into your device by testing it regularly during the development process. Pre-Compliance EMC Testing during development helps you locate and correct EMC issues at home in your facility. This spares you the time and expense of testing at a registered compliance lab. An RF Shielded EMC Enclosure provides the low ambient RF level necessary to test your product for emissions, susceptibility, and immunity. The equipment required to do your...

Nothing is “simple” anymore-needs Change!
Nothing is "simple" anymore-needs Change! When I first came to VTT, our manufacturing product line was fairly simple. RF Shielded Enclosures, RF Shielding Curtains, RF Shielding Garments were about it! Today, we find that our customers are always finding new and different needs for our conductive textile products. An RF Shielded enclosure has become a "suite" of rooms with more isolation than ever. Requests for Foyers, removable walls, are routine requests rather than unusual. RF Shielding Curtains are now "arrays...

RF Shielded EMC Testing Enclosures-Size Matters!
RF Shielded EMC Testing Enclosures-Size Matters! Electronic devices come in all sizes. All of the devices require EMC Compliance Testing in order to be marketed. This testing determines whether the device can work effectively in a shared electromagnetic environment. All devices emit RFI radiation and electromagnetic fields. These emissions can adversely affect the function of the other devices. The problem boils down to two terms, emissions or susceptibility. The RF emissions of an electronic device must meet certain applicable standards. ...
