Schaffner Modula ESD Testing System
The Schaffner Modula is a new product line
for the simulation of electromagnetic interference effects. Immunity
testing in conformity with international, national and in-house standards
is handled with hitherto unimaginable efficiency and with greater operator
convenience than ever before. Besides the generation of the classic
interference pulses such as Burst and Surge as well as Power Quality
simulations, further functions can also be readily incorporated in the
system configuration. The Schaffner Modula represents a new yardstick for
pulse generators and systems intended for investigating the immunity of
products to electromagnetic interference.
Modula is a system concept that can appear
in various guises depending on the intended use and the market needs.
Industry-wide compatibility has been very much borne in mind in the
development of Modula. The use of the well-known Interbus as the internal
and external interface to every function unit, the Ethernet with the
TCP/IP protocol for PC and network links, IEC compatible connectors on the
equipment and EUT side, a software concept based on the Lab View standard,
running under Windows, provides the greatest possible freedom and
flexibility for expansion and for incorporation of available or planned
components into the system in the test laboratory.
