I have a question about Performance Criterion B as described in EN61000-6-2.
Scenario:
A product temporary looses communication over a network connection during an
EMC disturbance like an ESD event. It self-recovers and resumes communication
after about a minute.
Question:
Is the above event considered an acceptable loss of performance or a loss of
functionality?
If it is a loss of functionality, even a temporary one, then I would say that
is fails Criterion B, but meets Criterion C. I don't think it a question of
loss of performance in this example.
Is this a correct interpretation?
Thanks,
