IEC 62433-2:2008 specifies macro-models for ICs to simulate conducted electromagnetic emissions on a printed circuit board. The model is commonly called Integrated Circuit Emission Model - Conducted Emission (ICEM-CE). The ICEM-CE model can also be used for modelling an IC-die, a functional block and an Intellectual Property block (IP). The ICEM-CE model can be used to model both digital and analogue ICs. Basically, conducted emissions have two origins:
- conducted emissions through power supply terminals and ground reference structures;
- conducted emissions through input/output (I/O) terminals. The ICEM-CE model addresses those two types of origins in a single approach. This standard defines structures and components of the macro-model for EMI simulation taking into account the IC's internal activities. This standard gives general data, which can be implemented in different formats or languages such as IBIS, IMIC, SPICE, VHDL-AMS and Verilog. SPICE is however chosen as default simulation environment to cover all the conducted emissions. This standard also specifies requirements for information that shall be incorporated in each ICEM-CE model or component part of the model for model circulation, but description syntax is not within the scope of this standard.

This part of IEC 62132 provides general information and definitions on measurement of conducted and radiated electromagnetic immunity of integrated circuits (ICs) to conducted and radiated disturbances. It also provides a description of measurement conditions, test equipment and set-up, as well as the test procedures and content of the test reports. A test method comparison table is included in Annex A to assist in selecting the appropriate measurement method(s). This standard describes general conditions required to obtain a quantitative measure of immunity of ICs in a uniform testing environment. Critical parameters that are expected to influence the test results are described. Deviations from this standard are noted explicitly in the individual test report. The measurement results can be used for comparison or other purposes. Measurement of the injected voltages and currents, together with the responses of the ICs tested at controlled conditions, yields information about the potential immunity of the IC to conducted and radiated RF disturbances in a given application.

This measurement procedure describes a measurement method to quantify the RF immunity of integrated circuits (ICs) mounted on a standardized test board or on their final application board (PCB), to electromagnetic conductive disturbances.

This test procedure defines a method for measuring the electromagnetic radiation from an integrated circuit (IC). The IC being evaluated is mounted on an IC test printed circuit board (PCB) that is clamped to a mating port (referred to as a wall port) cut in the top or bottom of a transverse electromagnetic (TEM) or wideband gigahertz TEM (GTEM) cell. The test board is not inside the cell, as in the conventional usage, but becomes a part of the cell wall. This method is applicable to any TEM or GTEM cell modified to incorporate the wall port; however, the measured radio frequency (RF) voltage will be affected by many factors. The primary factor affecting the measured RF voltage is the septum to IC test board (cell wall) spacing. This procedure was developed using a 1 GHz TEM cell with a septum to floor spacing of 45 mm and a GTEM cell with average septum to floor spacing of 45 mm over the port area. Other cells may not produce identical spectral output but may be used for comparative measurements, subject to their frequency and sensitivity limitations. A conversion factor may allow comparisons between data measured on TEM or GTEM cells with different septum to floor spacing. The IC test board controls the geometry and orientation of the operating IC relative to the cell and eliminates any connecting leads within the cell (these are on the backside of the board, which is outside the cell). For the TEM cell, one of the 50 ports is terminated with a 50 load. The other 50 port for a TEM cell, or the single 50 port for a GTEM cell, is connected to the input of a spectrum analyser or receiver that measures the RF emissions emanating from the integrated circuit and impressed onto the septum of the cell.

This part of IEC 61967 provides a test procedure which defines a method for evaluating the near electric, magnetic or electromagnetic field components at or near the surface of an integrated circuit (IC). This diagnostic procedure is intended for IC architectural analysis such as floor planning and power distribution optimization. This test procedure is applicable to measurements from an IC mounted on any circuit board that is accessible to the scanning probe. For comparison of surface scan emissions between different ICs, the standardized test board defined in IEC 61967-1 should be used. This technique is capable of providing a detailed pattern of the radio frequency (RF) sources internal to the IC. The resolution of the measurement is determined by the capability of the measurement probe and the precision of the probe positioner. This method is intended for use over the 10 MHz to 1 GHz frequency range. Extended upper frequency limits are possible with existing probe technology but are beyond the scope of this specification. The probe is mechanically scanned according to a programmed pattern in a parallel or perpendicular plane to the IC surface. The data is computer processed to provide a colour- enhanced representation of the field strength at the scan frequency.
