Analogue audio disk records and reproducing equipment

IEC 60098:2020 applies to analogue audio disk records and the corresponding professional and domestic reproducing equipment. It excludes amplifiers and loudspeakers, methods of measurement for which can be found in IEC 60268-3, IEC 60268-5, IEC 60268­21 and IEC 60268-22. IEC 60098:2020 specifies the characteristics that are necessary to ensure compatibility between analogue audio disk records and the corresponding reproducing equipment. It also lists and defines the most important characteristics affecting the performance of reproducing equipment, and establishes agreed methods of measurement for these characteristics. IEC 60098:2020 cancels and replaces the third edition published in 1987. This edition constitutes a full revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) addition of a tolerance on groove width.

Disques audio analogiques et appareils de lecture

L'IEC 60098:2020 s'applique aux disques audio analogiques et aux appareils de lecture correspondants à usage professionnel et grand public. En sont exclus les amplificateurs et les haut-parleurs dont les méthodes de mesure peuvent être consultées respectivement dans l’IEC 60268-3, l’IEC 60268-5, l’IEC 60268­21 et l’IEC 60268-22. Le présent document spécifie les caractéristiques qui sont nécessaires pour garantir la compatibilité entre les enregistrements sur disque analogique et l’appareil de lecture correspondant. Il énumère et définit également les caractéristiques les plus importantes qui affectent les performances de l’appareil de lecture et établit des méthodes convenues pour la mesure de ces caractéristiques. L'IEC 60098:2020 annule et remplace la troisième édition parue en 1987. Cette édition constitue une révision complète. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente: a) ajout d'une tolérance relative à la largeur du sillon.

ANALOGUE AUDIO DISK RECORDS AND REPRODUCING EQUIPMENT
FOREWORD

1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising

all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international

co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and

in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,

Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their

preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with

may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising

with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for

Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.

2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international

consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all

interested IEC National Committees.

3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National

Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC

Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any

misinterpretation by any end user.

4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications

transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between

any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.

5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity

assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any

services carried out by independent certification bodies.

6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.

7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and

members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or

other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and

expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications.

8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is

indispensable for the correct application of this publication.

9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent

rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

International Standard IEC 60098 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 100: Audio,

video and multimedia systems and equipment.

This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 1987. This edition

constitutes a full revision.

This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous

edition:
a) addition of a tolerance on groove width.
The text of this International Standard is based on the following documents:
CDV Report on voting
100/3261/CDV 100/3331/RVC

Full information on the voting for the approval of this International Standard can be found in the

report on voting indicated in the above table.

This document has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.

stability date indicated on the IEC website under "http://webstore.iec.ch" in the data related to

rated value

value of a quantity used for specification purposes, established for a specified set of operating

conditions of a component, device, equipment, or system

Note 1 to entry: The rated value is normally the value stated by the manufacturer.

Note 1 to entry: 'Specified test conditions' can include open-circuit and short-circuit.

4 General
4.1 Scales for graphical presentation of data

Linear or logarithmic scales are recommended for graphical presentation. Linear decibel

scales are equivalent to logarithmic scales. Other kinds of scale, such as double logarithmic,

should be avoided. When using decibel scales, the zero reference should, if possible, be the

rated value. In those cases, where each of the scales refers directly to physical units, it is

recommended to avoid a combination of linear and logarithmic scales.

Where quantities represented by the axes are of the same kind, it is recommended that the

same unit length be used for both.
Linear scales with remote zero point
