Another little detail that gets lost in the shuffle is that while the FCC will accept CISPR 22 test data showing comliance to the those limits, the FCC also requires that the tests be done according to ANSI C63.4 which specifies that the mains power be the usual USA voltage and frequency; 120vac/60Hz. And so... two tests - FCC & CISPR. Annoying details! The MRA's between countries for the EMC regulations is helpful for a common ICES-003, FCC, CISPR 22, except for the mains power part. It also appears to be necessary since numerous products I've tested have passed at one main voltage and failed at the other. -

I'd have your test lab provide you a test report for ICES-003 based on the FCC data. Also, be sure that your labeling and information to the user meet IC requirements. You mentioned Declaration of Conformity. DOC and DOC labeling is only applicable to some types of ITE. Bill Stumpf D.L.S. Electronic Systems, Inc.

The latest version is ICES-003 2004 Issue 4. Actually the FCC will accept test data done to CISPR 22 (see CFR 47, Part 15.109 (g)). If the ITE device is an intentional radiator, then the testing site will have to be listed by the FCC and IC.

In the same lab for the same device we conducted testing for CISPR22 Class B compliance also. Based on these 2 reports we have issued DoC for placing the device in US & EU market. Now the same device we plan to sell in Canada. Do we need another testing or can we issue a DoC based on the FCC & CISPR reports. Sincerely SCM Microsystems (India) Pvt. Ltd. K.
