Equipment for Setting up a Simple, Inexpensive EMC Lab
Assuming an oscilloscope is available, a minimal EMC Lab can be set up with the following additional equipment.
Spectrum Analyzer:
Rigol DSA 815-TG Spectrum Analyzer (9 kHz to 1. 5 GHz), $1,500. The
$600 EMI option is not required.
(http://www.rigolna.com/products/spectrum-analyzers/dsa800/dsa815-tg/)
Clamp-On Current Probe:
Fischer Custom Communications F-33-1, $1,200, for measuring common-mode
currents on cables.
(http://www.fischercc.com/productfiles/DS%20F-33-1%20Rev--RLSE_2a5d.pdf)
Magnetic Field Loop Probes:
Beehive Electronics Model 100A for measuring magnetic fields in the
vicinity of PCBs, and Model 100C for measuring leakage at the seams of
shielded enclosures, $100 each.
(http://beehive-electronics.com/datasheets/100SeriesDatasheetCurrent.pdf)
If conducted emissions on the ac power line are to be measured then a Line Impedance Stabilization Network (LISN) is needed: Solar Electronics Type 8012-50-R-24-BNC Dual LISN, ~$800. (http://www.ramayes.com/Data%20Files/Solar/8012.pdf)
In addition, a couple hundred dollars of miscellaneous cables and adaptors will probably be required.
The total cost for the basic lab is slightly over $3,000, and if the
capability to measure conducted emissions on the ac power line is to be
added, the total cost still comes to under $5,000.
EMC Lab Experiments
IEEE EMC Society University Grant Program
"The
Electromagnetic Compatibility Society (EMCS) of the IEEE annually
searches for a University or College to assist in adding EMC to their
curriculum. We are looking for a University or College that does not
now include EMC in their offering, but that has an interest in doing
so. The objective of this program is to expose the maximum number of
students to the study of the basics of EMC. "
