EMC Test Enclosures make Pre-Compliance Testing Easy!
EMC Test Enclosures make Pre-Compliance testing easy! Manufacturers of electronic components know the importance of pre-compliance testing. Their components must function smoothly together with many other components simultaneously. The emission testing checks for RF emissions from the component. There are strict standards for the level of RF emissions that components are allowed to produce. Combine this with susceptibility testing, which is done to confirm that the component will be able function flawlessly in the presence of ambient RF levels that...

Reverberation Chambers Two Styles, One Great EMC Testing Method!
Reverberation Chambers, Two Styles, one Great EMC Testing Method! EMC Testing is typically done in metal lined testing chambers. The metal blocks any exterior RF noise from entering the testing chamber, interfering with the EMC testing that you are performing. It's just the Device Under Testing (DUT) and the applied frequencies that are used in the test. The problem is, the metal that keeps the "ambient noise out" allows reflection of the testing frequencies off the inside walls of the...

Infrared Detection, the Good and the Bad, and How to Avoid it!
What is Infrared Detection? Infrared Detection is using heat as a method of finding someone or something. The the infrared sensor/camera picks up the infrared heat signature of a person or object, which is be stronger or weaker than their surroundings. This makes the human being or object "distinct" from its surroundings, essentially locating the human being or object. What is Good about IR Detection? One good thing about infrared detection is the use of this technology in finding people lost in the...

What is Resistance Heating, What are its Applications?
What is Resistance Heating and What are its Applications? Resistance heating is heat generated by an electrical current passing through a resistor. The heat comes from electrical energy being converted to thermal energy. There are many applications for Resistance Heating: Aeronautics, Automotive, Military, and Smart Clothing industries to name a few. How is Resistance Heating Used in the Aeronautics Industry? In the aeronautics industry, resistance heating is used for de-icing the wings of aircraft in inclement weather. If the leading edges of airplane...
