Limit Form

The function of the Limit form changes, depending on the application.  For CE Analyst and RE Analyst the Limit form is used to specify limits against which EMI Analyst computation results are compared at the completion of calculations.  For CS Analyst and RS Analyst the Limit form is used to specify the amplitude of the signal injected on the Conductors or the amplitude of the electromagnetic field impinging on the Conductors, respectively.

Limits are most commonly specified by government or industry regulatory agencies, such as the Federal Communications Commission for consumer electronics, the Federal Aviation Administration for commercial aviation equipment, the Department of Defense for military equipment, CENELEC for equipment in service in the European Union, etc.

The Limit form is comprised of a data table that defines the limit using Frequency/Value pairs and a chart that displays the limit graphically.  As data is entered in the table the graph is updated accordingly.

For CE Analyst and RE Analyst the limit is not used by EMI Analyst when performing calculations.  It is only used as an overlay on graphs produced by those calculations.  The Limit module provides a convenient method for determining whether calculated emissions exceed the limit.

An example of the Limit form is shown in the figure below.
