China JJR Laboratory provides various electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), safety, and energy efficiency testing services for audio and video products, along with multi-national certification services. Passing emc testing is an essential step to ensure products meet international electromagnetic compatibility standards and regulations, facilitating product promotion in global markets.

 

EMC Testing for Audio and Video Products(图1)


With the rapid development of information technology, audio and video products have become widely used in daily life. However, these products generate electromagnetic radiation during operation and may also be susceptible to electromagnetic interference from other electronic devices. To ensure audio and video products operate properly in diverse electromagnetic environments without adversely affecting other equipment, EMC testing is necessary. Multimedia audio and video devices greatly enrich our daily lives by offering different forms of leisure and entertainment. The safety performance of these products is closely related to us and is strictly regulated by governments worldwide.

 

Product Scope

Various audio and video products, including amplifiers, speakers, audio amplifiers, DVD players, televisions, electronic musical instruments, audio-video teaching equipment, and devices with functions such as audio/video signal generation, input, storage, playback, retrieval, transmission, reception, amplification, processing, switching, or control.

 

Testing Items

1. Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) Testing:

 - Radiated Emission Test (RE)

 - Conducted Emission Test (CE)

 - Harmonic Current Test (Harmonic)

 - Voltage Fluctuation and Flicker Test (Flicker)

 

2. Electromagnetic Susceptibility (EMS) Testing:

 - electrostatic discharge test (ESD)

 - Radio Frequency Radiated Immunity Test (RS)

 - Radio Frequency Conducted Immunity Test (CS)

 - Electrical Fast Transient/Burst Test (EFT/Burst)

 - Surge Immunity Test (SURGE)

 - Voltage Dips and Short Interruptions Test (DIPS)

 - Power Frequency Magnetic Field Test (PFM)
