Standard Overview

ISO 16750 applies to electric and electronic systems and components for vehicles. ISO 16750-2 more specifically refers to road vehicles and their environmental conditions and electrical equipment testing. 

ISO 16750

ISO 16750 focuses on the potential environmental consequences and highligh
ts tests and requirements that are recommended for the specific mounting location on the vehicle. Several environmental factors were considered in the creation of the ISO 16750 series including world geography and climate, type of vehicle, vehicle use conditions and operating modes, equipment life cycle, vehicle supply voltage, and mounting location.

Types of Testing for ISO 16750 Complience 

  • Testing generator regulator failure
  • Simulating jump start 
  • Superimposing voltage
  • Superimposing sinusoidal voltage
  • Evaluating the effect of momentary drop in supply voltage
  • Completeing frequency sweeping
  • Verifing the DUT reset behaviour at different voltage drops
  • Checking the resistance of the DUT
  • Running other supply voltage tests

ISO 16750-2

ISO 16750-2 is a subsection of the ISO 16750 standard in the general category of road vehicles for environmental conditions, electrical equipment testing, and electronic equipment testing. ISO 16750-2 describes the potential environmental stresses and specifies tests and requirements recommended for the specific mounting location on/in the road vehicle. Independent of the mounting location, electrical loads vary based on a vehicle wiring harness and connection system's electrical resistance.

Direct current supply voltage

Direct current supply voltage is something to consider when authenticating equipment functionality at the minimum and maximum supply voltage:

Load Dump Transient of ISO 16750-2

The Load Dump pulse, as seen above, is specified to simulated an automotive system in which the battery is disconnected, while the alternator is providing a charging current in circuit.

Reversed Voltage

This test is to verify functionality of an automotive system in which the battery is connected at the opposite terminals. Transient Generators are not required to accomplish this, but a DC Source or Battery would be required.

ISO 16750-2 Test Equipment

ISO 16750-2 is approved by the Technical Committee ISO/TC 22 and Subcommittee SC 3.

ISO 10605: Road Vehicles—Test Methods for Electrical Disturbances from Electrostatic Discharge
ISO 10605 covers testing procedures involving electrostatic discharge within road vehicles. ISO 10605  ISO 10605 is accredited by the Technical Committee ISO/TC 22 and Subcommittee SC 3. This test methods needed for electrical disturbances, which is caused by electrostatic discharge, are specified with ISO 10605 requirements. For example, charge build-ups made from movement inside a vehicle or during exiting can result in electrostatic discharge. ESD Tests  Tests that simulate an electrostatic discharge (ESD) into a vehicle electrical system are based on the human ESD model. Sensitive electrical devices can be adversely affected by energy either coupled or radiated from electrostatic discharges. This International Standard describes ESD tests that apply to both automotive electronic modules and vehicles.    ESD Waveforms for ISO 10605  There a four different discharge networks used to accomplish each waveform as required by ISO 10605. The different Resistance and Capacitance values affect the discharge output timing typically measured at 30 and 60ns. When changing networks, the decay time of the waveform changes and results are measured as listed in the table above.   Waveform 1 is the ESD discharge using a 330 pF/330 Ω network Waveform 2 is the ESD discharge using a 150 pF/330 Ω network Waveform 1 here is using a 330 pF/2000 Ω discharge network Waveform 2 here is using a 150 pF/2000Ω discharge network Starting Profile Waveform of ISO 10605-2 The starting profile waveform is created from from a Load Dump Simulator and a DC Source to simulate an automotive system during start up. This is traditionally seen in Internal Combustion Engine (ICE's) vehicles where cranking occurs upon startup. ISO 10605 Test Equipment  ATEC carries several products for ISO 10605 from industry-leading companies, including Haefely and Teseq. Please,
ISO 11452: Immunity Testing of Road Vehicle Components
ISO 11452 is a set of international standards and guidelines for the immunity testing of the electrical components found in commercial vehicles and passenger cars. ISO 11452 covers the testing of these components’ immunity to narrowband radiated electromagnetic energy without regard to the type of vehicle propulsion system. The sections of ISO 11452 are as follows: ISO 11452-1 | General principles & terminology ISO 11452-2 | Absorber-lined shielded enclosure ISO 11452-3 | Transverse electromagnetic (TEM) cell ISO 11452-4 | Harness excitation methods ISO 11452-5 | Stripline ISO 11452-7 | Direct radio frequency (RF) power injection ISO 11452-8 | Immunity to magnetic fields ISO 11452-9 | Portable transmitters ISO 11452-10 | Immunity to conducted disturbances in the extended audio frequency range ISO 11452-11 | Reverberation chamber ISO 11452-2 is a vehicle component immunity standard that applies to the 200 MHz to 18 GHz range. This standard, like many automotive, military and aerospace standards, calls for moderately high fields to be generated. At frequencies below 200 MHz, antennas get physically larger and also less efficient. For frequencies below 200 MHz, the standard recommends the methods stated in parts 4, 3, and 5 of the ISO 11452 Severity Level Field I 25 V/m II 50 V/m III 75 V/m IV 100 V/m V (open to the users of the standard). ISO 11452 recommends that these tests are performed in a shielded room. As is common with most immunity measurements, the intent of the test is to produce RF field levels which can be disruptive or damaging to the EUT; the shielded room removes the risk of unintended disruption to other sensitive devices or equipment outside of the test region. In the US, as in most other countries, there are limits on the radiation of energy without licenses, at frequencies that could affect licensed broadcasts.
ISO 11801:2002 - Information technology – Generic cabling for customer premises
Within customer premises, the importance of the cabling infrastructure is similar to that of other fundamental building utilities such as heating, lighting and mains power. As with other utilities, interruptions to service can have a serious impact. Poor quality of service due to lack of design foresight, use of inappropriate components, incorrect installation, poor administration or inadequate support can threaten an organization's effectiveness. Historically, the cabling within premises comprised both application specific and multipurpose networks. The original edition of this standard enabled a controlled migration to generic cabling and the reduction in the use of application-specific cabling. The subsequent growth of generic cabling designed in accordance with ISO/IEC 11801 has: a) contributed to the economy and growth of Information and Communications Technology (ICT), b) supported the development of high data rate applications based upon a defined cabling model, and c) initiated development of cabling with a performance surpassing the performance classes specified in ISO/IEC 11801:1995 and ISO/IEC 11801 Ed1.2:2000. NOTE ISO/IEC 11801, edition 1.2 consists of edition 1.0 (1995) and its amendments 1 (1999) and 2 (1999). This second edition of ISO/IEC 11801 has been developed to reflect these increased demands and opportunities. This International Standard provides: a) users with an application independent generic cabling system capable of supporting a wide range of applications; b) users with a flexible cabling scheme such that modifications are both easy and economical; c) building professionals (for example, architects) with guidance allowing the accommodation of cabling before specific requirements are known; that is, in the initial planning either for construction or refurbishment; d) industry and applications standardization bodies with a cabling system which supports current products and provides a basis for future product
