MIL-STD-461F Training Course, MIL-461 Training Course
MIL-STD-461F training course teaches you the information, background, terminology, protocols, test methods, and requirements necessary to understand, design, and implement MIL-STD 461F.
MIL STD Background
MIL-STD-461 is a United States Military Standard developed to define how equipment should be tested in regards to their electromagnetic compatibility.
The most recent version of MIL-STD-461 is the MIL-STD-461F, which is the result of several corrections over years. However, there are still many military contracts mandating the compliance to MIL-STD-461E.
MIL-STD-461 compliance is basically is a military standard and thus not mandated outside the US military, but several civilian agencies and corporates also adopt this standard as it provides comprehensive procedures and guidelines in the field of electromagnetic. Plus, in order to sell their products and services to military, companies establish their anechoic chamber to conform to MIL-STD-461 in electromagnetic compatibility test labs. In other words, civilian organizations use MIL-STD-461 for two reasons:
- For those who have no potential clients from military, following MIL-STD-461 would help them conform to FCC Part 15 and EMC standards of other countries
- Those who do have potential clients requiring compliance of MIL-STD-461, it would be much more efficient to design one type of commercial off-the-shelf product that conforms to the most rigorous standard—MIL-STD-461—instead of going through multiple types of a product each of which comply with a different standard.
MIL-STD-461F Objectives
This standard regulates interface and the relevant verification criteria in order to monitor the emission of an electromagnetic interference (EMI) and its liability associated with electronic, electrical, and electromechanical tools and subsystems created or assembled to be employed in any missions or activities related to the Department of Defense (DoD). The stated equipment and subsystems could be applied individually or as an essential component of other subsystems or systems. MIL-STD-461F is mostly suitable for the elements with the following qualities:
- Electronic enclosures that are no larger than an equipment rack
- Electrical interconnections that are distinct wiring harnesses between enclosures
- Electrical power input coming from prime power sources
MIL-STD-461F should not, however, be used in the elements such as modules positioned within electronic enclosures or the whole platforms. Though, the rationale of the standard could be helpful to use as a foundation for developing appropriate characteristics for those applications.
