Overview
EN 60315-3:1999 (CLC adoption of IEC 60315-3) defines standardized methods of measurement on radio receivers for amplitude‑modulated (AM) sound‑broadcasting emissions. The standard applies to receivers intended for AM broadcast reception and focuses primarily on radio‑frequency (RF) measurements made at the antenna terminals or induced in a magnetic antenna. It is intended to be read in conjunction with HD 560.1 and aligns with IEC 60315-3:1989 (plus corrigendum).
Key topics and requirements
- Scope and applicability
- Methods specific to receivers for amplitude‑modulated sound broadcasting emissions (AM broadcast receivers).
- Emphasis on measurements using RF signals applied to antenna terminals or induced in a magnetic antenna.
- Measurement methods
- Standardized RF injection and measurement approaches to evaluate receiver behavior under controlled RF conditions.
- Procedures that ensure repeatable, comparable test results between laboratories and manufacturers.
- Test set‑up and instrumentation
- Guidance on the configuration of antenna inputs and magnetic antenna coupling for measurement purposes.
- Requirements for test signal sources and measurement interfaces when assessing receivers via their antenna terminals.
- Harmonization and references
- Compatibility with the broader IEC/EN measurement framework for radio receivers.
- Clear instruction to consult HD 560.1 for complementary test definitions and procedures.
(Note: EN 60315-3:1999 describes measurement methods; it does not specify numeric performance limits - see HD 560.1 and product-specific regulations for pass/fail criteria.)
Applications
- Product development: R&D teams use these measurement methods to characterise AM receiver front‑end behavior early in design and during prototype validation.
- Conformity testing: Test laboratories and certification bodies apply standard methods to produce reproducible measurements for regulatory submissions and quality assurance.
- Manufacturing and quality control: Production test setups adopt EN 60315-3 procedures for consistent factory verification of RF input behaviour.
- Field and lab troubleshooting: Engineers use the standard’s measurement approaches to reproduce, diagnose, and verify reception issues related to antenna interfaces.
Who should use this standard
- Radio receiver manufacturers (especially those producing AM broadcast receivers)
- Test and calibration laboratories
- Compliance officers and certification bodies
- RF and broadcast engineers involved in receiver design, test, and validation
