HIRF Risk

2008-07-01 Thread Price, Edward
I have had a fair amount of experience in making sure that military systems can meet the MIL-STD-461 RS103 requirement of 200 V/M. However, we are now seeing system requirements for levels from MIL-STD-464 (and other places). These new requirements invoke immunity to levels such as 8 GHz to 10 GHz

Re: HIRF Risk

2008-07-01 Thread Ken Javor
I see very little response at those frequencies and levels. Recall that coupling efficiency to circuits decreases with increasing frequency. 21,000 V/m at 10 GHz couples the same level as 2100 V/m at 1 GHz, which is like 210 V/m at 100 MHz. But then you need to look at modulation. Usually these

I suspect that any such connector that does not have gold plating may also have other characteristics that limit the number of insertions and withdrawals that can be expected without reliability issues. This was my point to my counterpart in global procurement. He says QM labs have tested
