Information technology equipment - Radio disturbance characteristics - Limits and methods of measurement

CISPR 22:2008 applies to information technology equipment (ITE). Procedures are given for the measurement of the levels of spurious signals generated by the ITE and limits are specified for the frequency range 9 kHz to 400 GHz for both class A and class B equipment. No measurements need be performed at frequencies where no limits are specified. The intention of this publication is to establish uniform requirements for the radio disturbance level of the equipment contained in the scope, to fix limits of disturbance, to describe methods of measurement and to standardize operating conditions and interpretation of results. This sixth edition of CISPR 22 cancels and replaces the fifth edition published in 2005, its Amendment 1 (2005) and Amendment 2 (2006). This edition constitutes a minor revision. NEW! CISPR 22:2008 is also available as IEC Standards+ CISPR 22:2008 which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition.

Appareils de traitement de l'information - Caractéristiques des perturbations radioélectriques - Limites et méthodes de mesure

La CISPR 22:2008 est applicable aux appareils de traitement de l'information (ATI). Des procédures sont indiquées pour la mesure des niveaux des signaux parasites engendrés par les ATI; les limites sont spécifiées pour la gamme de fréquence de 9 kHz à 400 GHz et concernent aussi bien les appareils de classe A que ceux de classe B. Il n'est pas nécessaire d'effectuer de mesure aux fréquences pour lesquelles aucune limite n'est spécifiée. L'objet de la présente publication est d'établir des exigences uniformes pour les limites des perturbations radioélectriques des appareils relevant du domaine d'application, de fixer des limites pour le niveau perturbateur, de décrire des méthodes de mesure et de normaliser les conditions de fonctionnement et l'interprétation des résultats. Cette sixième édition de la CISPR 22 annule et remplace la cinquième édition parue en 2005, l'Amendement 1 (2005) et l'Amendement 2 (2006). Cette édition constitue une révision mineure. NEW! La CISPR 22:2008 est également disponible sous forme de IEC Standards+ CISPR 22:2008 qui contient la Norme internationale et sa version Redline, illustrant les modifications du contenu technique depuis l'édition précédente.

Oprema za informacijsko tehnologijo - Karakteristike občutljivosti za radijske motnje - Mejne vrednosti in merilne metode

Ta mednarodni standard velja za informacijsko tehnologijo (ITE), kot je opredeljeno v točki 3.1. Podani so postopki za merjenje ravni lažnih signalov, ki ji proizvede ITE, in opredeljene so mejne vrednosti za frekvenčni razpon od 9 kHz do 400 GHz za opremo razreda A in B. Kjer mejne vrednosti niso določene, ni potrebno nobeno merjenje. Namen te objave je vzpostaviti enotne zahteve za raven občutljivosti za radijske motnje pri opremi, zajeti na področjih uporabe, določiti mejne vrednosti občutljivosti, opisati metode merjenja ter standardizirati operativne pogoje in razlago rezultatov.

INTERPRETATION SHEET 1
This interpretation sheet has been prepared by CISPR subcommittee I: Electromagnetic
compatibility of information technology equipment, multimedia equipment and receivers, of
IEC technical committee CISPR: International special committee on radio interference.
The text of this interpretation sheet is based on the following documents:
ISH Report on voting
CISPR/I/299/ISH CISPR/I/312/RVD

Full information on the voting for the approval of this interpretation sheet can be found in the
report on voting indicated in the above table.

Introduction:
th
At the CISPR SC I plenary, held on the 27 October 2007, a decision was taken to set the
maintenance date for CISPR 22, Edition 6 to 2012. As a result the work identified within
CISPR/I/279/MCR will not be started for the time being. At the subsequent meeting of CISPR
SC I WG3 it was decided that certain items within the MCR would benefit now from further
clarification and an interpretation sheet would be helpful to users of the standard, with the
intent of including this information in a future amendment to the standard.
This information does not change the standard; it serves only to clarify the points noted.
CISPR SC I WG3 hopes that these clarifications will be of use to users and especially
laboratories testing to CISPR 22, Edition 6.0. The document is based on the comments
received on CISPR/I/290/DC.
Interpretation:
1. Selection of Average detector
CISPR 22 defines limits for radiated emissions at frequencies between 1 GHz and 6 GHz with
respect to both average and peak detectors. CISPR 16-1-1 defines two types of Average
detector for use above 1 GHz. For the limits given in CISPR 22 the appropriate average
detector is the linear average detector defined in 6.4.1 of CISPR 16-1-1:2006 with its
Amendments 1:2006 and 2:2007.
October 2009 ICS 33.100.10
2. Measurement of conducted emissions on cabinets containing multiple items of
equipment
Where the EUT is a cabinet or rack that contains multiple items of equipment that are
powered from an AC power distribution strip and where the AC power distribution strip is an
integral part of the EUT as declared by the manufacturer, the AC power line conducted
emissions should be measured on the input cable of power distribution strip that leaves the
cabinet or rack, not the power cables from the individual items of equipment. This is
consistent with the requirements in 9.5.1 paragraph 1 and sub paragraph c).
