Ghery, Rob, all Remember that when you apply a standard you are doing so on the basis that the standard covers ALL the product EMC characteristics.
IF you design a PC with a 3GHz clock and only apply a standard with a 1GHz limit and then there is a problem with real interference at 3GHz, the authorities may not believe that due diligence had been applied. So I would start asking - what does the product do - and then find standards that may be useful in making your EMC assessment.

Heller) So what is the bottom line? Are there or are there not limits for Europe (EN 55022) above a gig? I have copies of both BS EN 55022:2006 and BS EN 55022:2006 +A1:2007 Incorporating corrigendum no. 1. Both standards have a section 6.2 and both standards have limits from 1 to 6 GHz. BS EN 55022:2006 is listed in the OJ so I assume that it is valid.

They made a mistake and included Amendment 1 to CISPR 22, Edition 5.0 and withdrew it promptly when I pointed out their error. Limits above 1 GHz should not be included in EN 55022:2006. Ghery S.

Both reference CISPR 16-1-4 for the description of the test site. (Our copy of EN55022:2006 does not show any such limits.) A few questions: Has the CISPR test site for > 1GHz been decided? Has the validation method for the site been decided? If the test site or site validation method is still not settled, how does one test to the limits shown in these two standards? John D.
