Applications

Functional and stress test

EMC applications in particular require universal testing of all audio and video interfaces of consumer equipment. As an example, the CISPR 20 standard stipulates that electronic equipment must be checked for immunity to disturbance in all possible operating modes and that TV sets may not present any picture or sound defects.

The focus with digital interfaces is on protocol-specific parameters. The HDMI interface in particular features a wide variety of parameters that are required for smooth communications, including high definition content protection (HDCP), extended display identification data (EDID) and DVI compatibility. The R&S®DVSG is able to check all these functions.
