Application Note: Automotive 600V/m Radar Pulse Test Solution

Thu, 23 Feb 2006 19:09:00 GMT

By Jason Smith, Sr. Applications Engineer, AR
There are many hazardous electrical events in the environment that can have adverse effects on the systems of a vehicle, causing potentially unsafe situations. These events can be generated by "off-vehicle" as well as "on-vehicle" sources and can either be natural or man-made. To protect against these events automobile manufacturers have developed ElectroMagnetic Compatibility (EMC) standards to test electronic components and whole vehicles. One known manmade event is the Radar Pulse used by military and airports to track aircraft. This high intensity RF field is directed up into the sky but sometimes can be detected on the surface where it could possibly affect the electronics of an automobile...
