Group, I would like to get some input on how 60950-1 people and others deal with 60950-1 2.10.5.4 Semiconductor devices: optoisolators We are dealing with the issue of option a) vs option b) to show compliance. The end goal is to identify that the component satisfies the following,

[PSES] IR illumination

2012-02-16 Thread Goedderz, Jim
Forum, We have a low voltage camera (class 3) that appears to NOT legally require a NRTL certification for National Electric Code acceptance. The product is powered by a LPS and should therefore be out of the jurisdiction of the LVD also. However, the camera also houses an IR light

Group, We have some indirect evidence, and some damaged product, that appears to be related to over voltage on the power grid in Australia. The nominal is 240V 50Hz, but we are hearing accounts of voltages as high as 285V. Has anyone else had to deal with damaged product, or can confirm that

Sound measurement

Hello group, I have been able to find limits for noise exposure, but not measurement methods. Can anyone give the measurement methods, or a reference to a method. Specifically, I'm looking for something like the distance from the microphone, to the noise source. Thank you James Goedderz

Dwight, Our engineering group regularly sends products out for HALT testing. We design ITE, although not computers. Some of the system problems that they uncover are broken solder joints (mass of component), poor connections (circuit boards), and other mechanical problem (fasteners). The main

Just to offer another idea. These recorders work great in the car. Taking a note on paper can be quite a hazard while your driving along. I've used one for about a year now, and it's helped me remember lots of ideas, and tasks to jog down later. James Goedderz Sensormatic Electronics
