SAE J551 specifies measurement procedures and performance levels for magnetic and electric field emissions and conducted power mains emissions over the frequency range of 150 kHz to 30 MHz for vehicles incorporating electric propulsion systems, e.g., battery, hybrid, or plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. Conducted emissions measurements for SAE J551 apply only to battery-charging systems which utilize a switching frequency above 9 kHz, are mounted on the vehicle, and whose power is transferred by metallic conductors. Conducted emission requirements apply only during charging the batteries from AC power lines. Conducted and radiated emissions measurements of battery-charging systems that use an induction power coupling device are not covered by the SAE J551 document. The measurement of electromagnetic disturbances for frequencies from 30 MHz to 100 MHz is covered in CISPR 12.

MIL-STD-464 details the US military’s requirements for electromagnetic environmental effects on the interfaces of sea, space, ground and airborne systems. To safeguard the operation and performance of these systems, each should be compatible with equipment within the system and related subsystems. MIL-STD-464 primarily consists of design requirements and verification methods necessary to prevent or resolve these electromagnetic compatibility issues. Throughout the standard, Data Item Descriptions (DID) are referenced to determine problem areas early on in system design, minimize risks going forward and document testing results. The current version of MIL-STD-464 is MIL-STD-464C. The following are brief summaries of the standard's requirements: 5.1 Margins Margins should be offered based on system performance requirements, tolerances and uncertainties.   5.2 Intra-system electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) The system should be electromagnetically compatible with its own components.   5.3 External RF EME The system should be electromagnetically compatible with a specified external electromagnetic environment to the extent that operational performance standards are met.   5.4 High-power microwave (HPM) sources The system should meet its own requirements after exposure to narrowband and wideband HPM environments.   5.5 Lightning The system should possess the appropriate resistance to both direct and indirect lightning effects.   5.6 Electromagnetic pulse (EMP) The system should meet performance standards after exposure to the EMP environment.   5.7 Subsystems and equipment electromagnetic interference (EMI) Individual components, equipment and subsystems must meet radiated immunity, radiated emissions, conducted immunity and conducted emissions test requirements.   5.8 Electrostatic charge control The system should be able to both control and disperse electrostatic discharge (ESD) triggered

MIL-STD-750 defines testing methods for the environmental, physical and electrical testing of semiconductor devices utilized in military and aerospace electronic systems. The methods and procedures throughout the standard cover basic environmental, physical and electrical tests to assess resistance to deleterious effects of natural elements and conditions surrounding military and space operations. For this standard, the term "devices" includes such items as transistors, diodes, voltage regulators, rectifiers, tunnel diodes, and other related parts. This standard is intended to apply only to semiconductor devices. The test methods and procedures described in the various parts of this multipart test method standard have been prepared to serve several purposes: a. To specify suitable conditions obtainable in the laboratory that give test results equivalent to the actual service conditions existing in the field and to obtain reproducibility of the results of tests. The test methods described by this standard are not to be interpreted as an exact and conclusive representation of actual service operation in any one geographic location since it is known that the only true test for operation in a specific location is an actual service test at that point. b. To describe, in a series of standards, all of the test methods of a similar character which now appear in the various joint-services semiconductor device specifications so that these test methods may be kept uniform and thus result in conservation of equipment, man-hours, and testing facilities. In achieving this objective, it is necessary to make each of the general test methods adaptable to a broad range of devices. c. The test methods described by this standard for environmental, physical, and electrical testing of semiconductor devices shall also apply, when applicable, to parts not covered by an approved military sheet-form standard, specification sheet, or drawing.

ANSI C63.16 elucidates explanations, best practices, and guidance for avoiding the pitfalls associated with electrostatic discharge (ESD) testing to IEC and other international standards. ESD standards are provided and should be considered a supplement to these standards, rather than a replacement. Unique ESD test procedures related to connecting charged peripherals to equipment in use are also included. ANSI C63.16 Foreword This standard for performing electrostatic discharge (ESD) testing incorporates the latest research in ESD waveform characterization and strives to ensure product quality through proper operation in actual equipment installations. The discharge source is based on the hand/metal model: discharges from a human with an intervening metal object between the hand and point of contact. The modes of contact discharge and air discharge are specified, as well as direct (on the product) and indirect (near the product) discharge points. One of the primary goals of this standard will be to address the deficiencies in existing ESD standards, including IEC 61000-4-2. Existing ESD standards were written based on the state of the art in measurement technology and the industry’s understanding of the ESD phenomena at the time, and they have done much to improve the immunity of electronic devices to ESD.  The variation of human-metal ESD is large over typical voltage arc length ranges and differs from furniture ESD or human-skin ESD. The problem of finding a waveform that provides a reasonable level of product protection is difficult and leads to a compromise. For example, a present requirement of IEC 61000-4-2 is a 0.7 to 1 ns rise time, which is slower than many actual ESD events. Faster rise times like 200 ps will cover more of the very often occurring low voltage ESDs and the fast-rising high voltage ESDs (usually in very dry air), but it may be too fast compared to many ESDs above 4 kV in the moderately humid air. With contact

CISPR 14-2 deals with the electromagnetic immunity of appliances and similar apparatus for household and similar purposes that use electricity, as well as electric toys and electric tools, the rated voltage of the apparatus being not more than 250 V for single-phase apparatus to be connected to phase and neutral, and 480 V for other apparatus. Apparatus may incorporate motors, heating elements or their combination may contain electric or electronic circuitry, and may be powered by the mains, by transformer, by batteries, or by any other electrical power source. Apparatus not intended for household use, but which nevertheless may require the immunity level, such as apparatus intended to be used by laymen in shops, in light industry, and on farms, are within the scope of this standard, as far as they are included in CISPR 14-1. In addition, the following are also included in the scope of this standard: Microwave ovens for domestic use and catering Cooking hobs and cooking ovens, heated by means of RF energy Single- and multiple-zone induction cooking appliances Appliances for personal care equipped with radiators in the range from UV to IR, inclusive (this includes visible light) Power supplies and battery chargers provided with or intended for apparatus within the scope of this standard For ESD tests on contacts of plugs and sockets the note ("The 4 kV contact discharge shall be applied to conductive accessible parts. Metallic contacts, such as in battery compartments or in socket outlets, are excluded from this requirement") saying that no test on contacts is necessary has been removed. The IEC 61000-4-2 includes a detailed description of how to deal with ESD on contacts and other surfaces. Also, discharge on HCP and VCP is required by the basic standard IEC 61000-4-2.

GM GMW3097 (General Specification for Electrical/Electronic Components and Subsystems, Electromagnetic Compatibility) specifies the EMC requirements for all automotive products when evaluated by specified test procedures. It refers to International EMC standards whenever possible, occasionally including internet test procedures when necessary. Validation testing in accordance with GM GMW3097 must be performed at a laboratory that has received recognition through the Automotive EMC Laboratory Recognition Program (AEMCLRP). For GM GMW3097, A minimum of two samples shall be tested. The supply voltage shall be 13.5 (+0.5/-1) V unless otherwise stated in the test plan. The DUT (Device Under Test) shall pass both the component level tests according to this specification and the vehicle level tests according to GMW3091. Component tests are not intended to take the place of vehicle tests. The exact correlation between component and vehicle test performance is dependent on component mounting location, harness length, routing, and grounding, as well as the antenna system. Component testing, however, permits components to be evaluated before actual vehicle availability. Before testing, any deviations from the requirements and/or test procedures shall have been agreed with the GM EMC Engineer responsible for approving the test plan. Such deviations shall be detailed in the approved test plan and on component drawings, test certificates, reports, etc. Note: All EMC test results that are intended for validation purposes must be accompanied by a GMW3103 EMC Test Plan (complete with an approval number supplied by the GM EMC Engineer or by the CEMENT database process). Note: Any EMC development test results that are provided to GM (e.g., test results that have been taken before the EMC test plan approval, or results of limited testing due to root cause analysis or Pre-DV evaluation work) must be marked “Development Data – Not For

FMC1278 CI 280 replaces EMC-CS-2009.1, both referring to ISO 10605 for the ESD testing portion. FMV1278 is applicable for all 12 and 124 volt DC electrical and electronic components/subsystems that are planned for use on 2020 Ford vehicle programs and beyond in addition to E/E component/subsystems whose commercial agreements are signed after July 1, 2015.  CI 280 Electrostatic Discharge is required in most components including all electronic modules (A, AS, AM, AX, AW), electric motors (EM), and other devices (D).  Differences from EMC-CS-2009.1: Concerning reporting, the laboratory may not use the terms pass or fail. They may only report Status I, II, or III. FMC will determine pass/fail based during their review of the formal test report.  Parametric testing no longer required immediately after testing. However, parametric testing is recommended after testing additional test samples.  ISO 10506 (2001) replaced by ISO 10605 (2008). Affects ESD simulator verification.  For handling tests, the DUT is placed on dielectric support vs a dissipative mat. 200 mm ground still required.  Figures updated to show that CAN wiring remains co-bundled with another wiring during powered ESD tests.  ESD stress levels now extended to +/= 15 kV for CAN circuits in the diagnostic connector.
