HP Introduces Measurement Systems to Help Product Manufacturers Meet EMC Precompliance Regulations; EMC Analyzers Make In-house Precompliance Testing a Reality.PALO ALTO Palo Alto, city, California Palo Alto (păl`ō ăl`tō), city (1990 pop. 55,900), Santa Clara co., W Calif.; inc. 1894. Although primarily residential, Palo Alto has aerospace, electronics, and advanced research industries. , Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 16, 1999-- Hewlett-Packard Company today introduces a new family of easy-to-use, fully automated precompliance measurement systems that help product manufacturers meet electromagnetic compliance (EMC (1) (EMC Corporation, Hopkinton, MA, www.emc.com) The leading supplier of storage products for midrange computers and mainframes. Founded in 1979 by Richard J. Egan and Roger Marino, EMC has developed advanced storage and retrieval technologies for the world's largest companies. ) regulations and reduce product-development costs and time to market. "Testing for electromagnetic interference See EMI. is critical for designers of commercial products such as computers, scientific and medical equipment, appliances, motors and controllers," said Scott Wright Scott Wright (born 2 October 1974) is a British actor, best known for his two year stay in ITV1's Coronation Street, playing Sam Kingston from 2000 to 2002, who famously stripped in the Rovers Return. , general manager of HP's Santa Rosa Santa Rosa, city, Argentina Santa Rosa, city (1991 pop. 80,629), capital of La Pampa prov., central Argentina.

"Failure to comply with worldwide EMC regulations means products simply cannot be released." Designed specifically for in-house precompliance and diagnostic EMC measurements, the HP E7400 A-series EMC analyzers help development engineers perform EMC testing throughout the design and evaluation processes. In-house testing can isolate electromagnetic interference (EMI (ElectroMagnetic Interference) An electrical disturbance in a system due to natural phenomena, low-frequency waves from electromechanical devices or high-frequency waves (RFI) from chips and other electronic devices. Allowable limits are governed by the FCC. ) problems early so companies can avoid the costly delays that result from redesigning a non-compliant product. Easy to Use Users require no special knowledge or training to perform precompliance measurements. Users can capture measurements directly from the front panel of the EMC analyzer or use the interactive software to carry out tests from a PC. Automatic remeasure Re`meas´ure v. t. 1.

The color display and built-in floppy-disk drive provide visual clarity of signals and the ability to export measurement results. In addition to providing easy-to-use interactive capabilities, the HP E7415A EMC measurement software enables users to make fully automated measurements. Meets Industry Needs To certify products, companies require improved frequency and amplitude accuracy and EMI measurement capabilities above one gigahertz (GHz). To address these needs, HP offers the HP E7400 A-series EMC analyzer in frequencies up to 26.5GHz, with low startup costs. In addition, the HP E7415A EMC measurement software helps reduce startup time with fully automated, easy-to-learn diagnostic and EMI measurements. -0-
