IEC/EN61000 Standards for Power Supplies
This application note provides a general description of the EMC standards for power supplies, including the test levels and an explanation of the different performance criteria that can be met for each standard.
One of the least well-defined specifications on a power supply datasheet are the IEC/EN61000-3 and -4 standards. Stating that the power supply complies to a given standard without specifying the test level at which it complies and the performance criteria during the test, does not provide the system designer with enough of the details needed to properly evaluate the effectiveness of the supply.
A list of pertinent IEC/EN61000 immunity standards is provided for a quick reference and description of the standard.
The information provided in this application note is for guidance and may not represent the latest standards requirement.
Consult the actual standard for applicable levels and requirements.
