Wired headsets and microphones connected to a product, often acts as receiver for induced RF fields. That means you quite often hear the 1kHz modulation tone under the RF immunity tests. This is quite annoying for the user and above a certain level, not acceptable.
To avoid such phenomena is quite a big task to conduct. But have anyone of you any experience how to determine if the headsets / microphones or the connected final product is the source to this problem? 3rd. party headsets / microphones have of course different RF immunity performance, and after a lot of testing, you might be able to find headsets / microphones that are does not pick up fields and the hearing audio noise level is acceptable. I assume that the final product may have great level of immunity, but as long the headsets / microphones has poor immunity level, you will have this audio problem anyway. Has anyone been into this problem before?
