Tony (and pretty much everyone else) is right: You can use the CISPR radiated emissions data to show compliance to the FCC Part 15 standard for radiated emissions.
The FCC does require you to ensure compliance to conducted emissions in a different way: You need to test at 115VAC/60Hz against the CISPR limits. This is because the radiated emissions data were taken in accordance to the CISPR specifications. I have some comments I'm going to keep to myself in regard to this... Steve Chin StreamLogic Corp. Menlo Park, CA, USA [email protected] -------------------------------------- List-Post: [email protected] Date: 11/4/96 2:19 PM To: Steve Chin From: Tony Fredriksson Judd, I believe that is is the other way around. EN 55022 data is accepted for FCC Class A verification or FCC Class B Certification or Declaration of Conformity. The only modification is that if your equipment must be scanned above 1 GHz if you have an oscillator fundamental frequency of 108 MHz or greater. I do not believe that FCC Class A or B data can be used to verify compliance with Euro regs. Therefore, the best approach to use is to do the EN 55022 test. Has anyone recently heard otherwise? Regards, [email protected] ---------- From: Judd Stewart To: PSTC Subject: FCC Class A data vs. EN5502 List-Post: [email protected] Date: Friday, November 01, 1996 5:31PM Hello to all! I have a question concerning the applicability of data. Assume a ITE product is Verified FCC Class A and is being readied for marketing in the EU. (the unit is compliant with EN60950, notified body confirmed) Is the (FCC A) data package acceptable as being compliant with EN55022? That is, can I use that data set to support my claim of compliance with EN55022? One of the system engineers heard this on the grapevine and I rather doubt it. I think the unit will need the full EN55022 data set. Thanks for the response in advance.
