Pre-Certification Testing Software of AC-Powered Electronic Devices

How creating an application for testing AC-powered electronic devices helped a household appliances manufacturer speed up checks for conformity to IEC 61000-4-11:2004.

Development and deployment of any AC-powered electronic device are accompanied by one big step – device testing and certification for conformity to existing standards, including failure resistance, short interruptions and changes in power voltage. There is a special class of devices called “test generators” used for conformity testing and control.

Challenge

We had to develop a software solution that would be embedded into the client’s hardware devices. The app should cover testing electronic appliances with up to 600 W rated power for conformity to IEC 61000-4-11:2004.

Solutions

We created software that meets the specified requirements. Key features of the device: it is compact and has a communication interface for control from a computer.
