Integrated circuits - Measurement of electromagnetic emissions, 150 kHz to 1 GHz -- Part 2: Measurement of radiated emissions - TEM cell and wideband TEM cell method

This test procedure defines a method for measuring the electromagnetic radiation from an integrated circuit (IC). The IC being evaluated is mounted on an IC test printed circuit board (PCB) that is clamped to a mating port (referred to as a wall port) cut in the top or bottom of a transverse electromagnetic (TEM) or wideband gigahertz TEM (GTEM) cell. The test board is not inside the cell, as in the conventional usage, but becomes a part of the cell wall. This method is applicable to any TEM or GTEM cell modified to incorporate the wall port; however, the measured radio frequency (RF) voltage will be affected by many factors. The primary factor affecting the measured RF voltage is the septum to IC test board (cell wall) spacing. This procedure was developed using a 1 GHz TEM cell with a septum to floor spacing of 45 mm and a GTEM cell with average septum to floor spacing of 45 mm over the port area. Other cells may not produce identical spectral output but may be used for comparative measurements, subject to their frequency and sensitivity limitations. A conversion factor may allow comparisons between data measured on TEM or GTEM cells with different septum to floor spacing. The IC test board controls the geometry and orientation of the operating IC relative to the cell and eliminates any connecting leads within the cell (these are on the backside of the board, which is outside the cell). For the TEM cell, one of the 50 Ω ports is terminated with a 50 Ω load. The other 50 Ω port for a TEM cell, or the single 50 Ω port for a GTEM cell, is connected to the input of a spectrum analyser or receiver that measures the RF emissions emanating from the integrated circuit and impressed onto the septum of the cell.

La présente procédure de mesure définit une méthode de mesure du rayonnement électromagnétique provenant d'un circuit intégré (CI). Le CI évalué est monté sur une carte de circuit imprimé (PCB) d'essai de CI qui est fixée sur un accès d'accouplement (désigné comme accès à la paroi) découpé au sommet ou au fond d'une cellule électromagnétique transverse (TEM, transverse electromagnetic) ou d'une cellule TEM en gigahertz (GTEM) à large bande. La carte d'essai n'est pas à l'intérieur de la cellule, comme dans l'usage conventionnel, mais devient une partie de la paroi de la cellule. Cette méthode est applicable à toute cellule TEM ou GTEM modifiée pour incorporer l'accès à la paroi; cependant, la tension RF mesurée sera affectée par de nombreux facteurs. Le facteur principal affectant la tension RF mesurée est l'espacement entre le diaphragme et la carte d'essai du CI (paroi de la cellule). Cette procédure a été élaborée à l'aide d'une cellule TEM de 1 GHz avec un espacement entre le diaphragme et le sol de 45 mm et d'une cellule GTEM avec un espacement moyen entre le diaphragme et le sol de 45 mm au-dessus de la zone de l'accès. D'autres cellules peuvent ne pas produire de sortie spectrale identique, mais peuvent être utilisées pour des mesures comparatives, soumises à leurs limites en fréquence et en sensibilité. Un facteur de conversion peut permettre des comparaisons entre les données mesurées sur les cellules TEM ou GTEM avec un espacement différent entre le diaphragme et le sol. La carte d'essai du CI contrôle la géométrie et l'orientation du CI en fonctionnement par rapport à la cellule et élimine tous les conducteurs de connexion à l'intérieur de la cellule (ceux-ci se situent sur la face arrière de la carte, qui est à l'extérieur de la cellule). Pour la cellule TEM, l'un des accès de 50 est terminé par une charge de 50 . L'autre accès de 50 pour une cellule TEM, ou le seul accès de 50 pour une cellule GTEM, est connecté à l'entrée d'un analyseur de sp

all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

Part 2: Measurement of radiated emissions –
TEM cell and wideband TEM cell method



1 Scope
This test procedure defines a method for measuring the electromagnetic radiation from an
integrated circuit (IC). The IC being evaluated is mounted on an IC test printed circuit board
(PCB) that is clamped to a mating port (referred to as a wall port) cut in the top or bottom of a
transverse electromagnetic (TEM) or wideband gigahertz TEM (GTEM) cell. The test board is
not inside the cell, as in the conventional usage, but becomes a part of the cell wall. This
method is applicable to any TEM or GTEM cell modified to incorporate the wall port; however,
the measured radio frequency (RF) voltage will be affected by many factors. The primary
factor affecting the measured RF voltage is the septum to IC test board (cell wall) spacing.
This procedure was developed using a 1 GHz TEM cell with a septum to floor spacing of
45 mm and a GTEM cell with average septum to floor spacing of 45 mm over the port area.
Other cells may not produce identical spectral output but may be used for comparative
measurements, subject to their frequency and sensitivity limitations. A conversion factor may
allow comparisons between data measured on TEM or GTEM cells with different septum to
floor spacing.
The IC test board controls the geometry and orientation of the operating IC relative to the cell
and eliminates any connecting leads within the cell (these are on the backside of the board,
which is outside the cell). For the TEM cell, one of the 50 Ω ports is terminated with a 50 Ω
load. The other 50 Ω port for a TEM cell, or the single 50 Ω port for a GTEM cell, is connected
to the input of a spectrum analyser or receiver that measures the RF emissions emanating
from the integrated circuit and impressed onto the septum of the cell.

6.4 Preamplifier
Typically, a 20 dB to 30 dB gain, low noise preamplifier is required to meet the ambient
requirements in 8.2. If used, the preamplifier shall be connected directly to the measurement
port of the TEM cell using the appropriate 50 Ω coaxial adapter; no cable shall be used.
6.5 TEM cell
The TEM cell used for this test procedure shall be fitted with a wall port sized to mate with the
IC test board. The TEM cell shall not exhibit higher order modes over the frequency range
being measured. For this procedure, the recommended TEM cell frequency range is 150 kHz
to the frequency of the first resonance of the lowest higher order mode (typically < 2 GHz).
The frequency range being evaluated shall be covered using a single cell. The voltage
standing wave ratio (VSWR) over the frequency range being measured shall be less than 1,5.
6.6 Wideband TEM/GTEM cell
The wideband TEM (GTEM) cell used for this test procedure shall be fitted with a wall port
sized to mate with the IC test board. The GTEM cell shall not exhibit higher order modes over
the frequency range being measured. For this procedure, the recommended GTEM cell
frequency range is from 150 kHz to the frequency of the first resonance of the lowest higher
order mode (typically > 2 GHz). The frequency range being evaluated shall be covered using
a single cell. The VSWR over the frequency range being measured shall be less than 1,5.
6.7 50-Ω termination
A 50 Ω termination with a VSWR less than 1,1 over the frequency range of measurement is
required for the TEM cell 50 Ω port not connected to the RF measuring instrument.
6.8 System gain
The gain (or attenuation) of the measuring equipment, without the TEM or GTEM cell, shall be
known with an accuracy ± 0,5 dB. The gain of the equipment shall remain within a 6 dB
envelope for each frequency band.
7 Test set-up
7.1 General
The test set-up shall meet the requirements as described in IEC 61967-1. In addition, the
following test set-up requirements shall apply.
7.2 Test configuration
See Figure 1 and Figure 2 for TEM cell and GTEM cell test configurations, respectively. One
of the TEM cell 50 Ω ports is terminated with a 50 Ω load. The remaining TEM cell or GTEM
50 Ω port is connected to the spectrum analyser through the optional preamplifier.

7.3 Test PCB
The IC test PCB shall be designed as described in IEC 61967-1 and in this document. In
cases where IEC 61967-1 and this document disagree, the requirements of this document
shall govern.
The minimum requirements for the IC test PCB are shown in Figure 3. Figure 3 describes a
2
100 cm PCB consisting of four metal layers. In theory, any size or shape of PCB may be used
that will mate with the wall port on the test cell used. However, the development of this
2 2
procedure was with a nominal 100 cm PCB and a nominal 100 cm mating wall port (refer to
Figures 1 and 2). The PCB may also contain additional inner layers as required to
accommodate signal and power routing. A description of the test board set-up (photo or
artwork, schematic and parts list) shall be included with the test report.
The DUT side of the printed circuit board (the side that faces in to the test cell) is dedicated to
a ground plane layer that completes the TEM or GTEM cell wall over the port opening. No
other conductors are allowed on this surface because they may act as additional radiators.
The ground plane should extend under the DUT, where practical for the IC package type. If
the ground plane under the DUT is isolated from the rest of the ground plane layer, utilize an
inner PCB ground layer and vias to establish the needed connection. The periphery of this
ground plane layer shall be plated (tin, solder, gold) to facilitate contact to the edge of the
wall port cut in the top or bottom of the test cell.

The access wiring and other required components (such as crystals) shall be on or connected
to the support side of this circuit board (the side that faces out from the TEM or GTEM cell).
Power bypass capacitors for the IC are to be chosen according to manufacturers’
recommendations and located to minimise lead length (refer to Table 1). All wiring should be
as short as possible and have controlled orientation relative to the PCB. The PCB material
shall be compatible with the frequency range being evaluated.
Pins that do not fall into any of the listed categories shall be loaded as functionally required
and stated in the test report. These are recommended default values; if other values are more
appropriate for a particular IC, they may be substituted for the values in Table 1 and shall be
stated in the test report.
