3.2.1 Introduction
The NSG 5500 EMC test system is designed for testing automotive electronic components and parts. Automo-
tive EMC test requirements are covered in ISO 7637-2, ISO 16750-2 and many OEM standards and requirements.
These standards outlines five basic pulse types that are used for automotive EMC testing. The NSG 5500 system
is a modular instrument that can generate all of the pulses described in the ISO standard and in many cases
to a higher specification than that specified in the standard.
The NSG 5500 is a modular instrument where the pulse generators are designed as plug- in modules that fit
into the NSG 5500 mainframe.
