Overview

SIST EN IEC 62228-7:2026 defines standardized test methods for the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) evaluation of CXPI transceiver integrated circuits (ICs). Developed by the Slovenian Institute for Standardization (SIST), this standard is part of the broader IEC 62228 series, focusing on transceivers used in automotive applications. Part 7 addresses the specific requirements for CXPI (Clock Extension Peripheral Interface) transceivers, which play a critical role in modern in-vehicle networking, particularly for cost-sensitive, robust, and efficient communication.

The document provides detailed requirements for test configurations, measurement methods, test signals, and pass/fail criteria. It is designed to help manufacturers, test engineers, and automotive electronics developers ensure CXPI transceiver ICs meet international EMC requirements under realistic network operation and environmental conditions.


Key Topics

  • Definition of CXPI Transceiver Types:
    The standard distinguishes between standard type-A, type-B, and embedded CXPI transceivers, based on their physical layer (PHY) implementations and functionalities.

  • EMC Test Methods:
    The main focus areas include:

    • RF Emission: Measurement of radio-frequency interference generated by CXPI transceivers.
    • RF Immunity: Evaluation of the transceiver's resistance to external RF disturbances.
    • Impulse Immunity: Tests for resilience against electrical impulses.
    • Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Immunity: Assessment of behavior under ESD conditions when unpowered.
  • Test Setups and Conditions:
    Comprehensive guidance is provided for:

    • Test and operating conditions for both powered and unpowered states.
    • Preparation of test circuit boards and selection of required external components.
    • Minimum test network configurations simulating real application scenarios.
  • Evaluation Criteria and Reporting:
    The standard specifies how to evaluate the EMC performance of CXPI transceivers and how to document test results to ensure repeatability and comparability.


Applications

  • Automotive Electronics Design:
    As CXPI networks gain traction in automotive applications for body control modules, light controls, and other non-safety-critical systems, ensuring EMC-compliant CXPI transceiver ICs is essential to avoid unwanted interference with other vehicle electronics.

  • IC Development and Qualification:
    Semiconductor manufacturers benefit from clear requirements when designing, validating, and certifying CXPI transceiver ICs for international markets.

  • Third-party Testing and Certification:
    Test laboratories and organizations responsible for EMC certification utilize this standard to perform consistent and recognized EMC evaluations.

  • System Integration:
    Automotive OEMs and Tier-1 suppliers use the standard for validating the EMC behavior of assembled electronic control units (ECUs) that incorporate CXPI transceivers.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as "IEC Publication(s)"). Their
preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) IEC draws attention to the possibility that the implementation of this document may involve the use of (a)
patent(s). IEC takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of any claimed patent rights in
respect thereof. As of the date of publication of this document, IEC had not received notice of (a) patent(s), which

4 General
The intention of this document is to evaluate the EMC performance of CXPI transceiver ICs
under application conditions in a minimal network. CXPI transceiver ICs are generally classified
into three types, as listed in Table 1.
Figure 1 shows a sample configuration of each type of CXPI transceiver IC. The overview of
the PHY sublayers follows ISO 20794-4. Standard type-A comprises a CXPI transceiver IC that
contains the PS sublayer and the PMA sublayer. Standard type-B contains only the PMA
sublayer. The embedded type includes a microcontroller or ASSP function, in addition to the
functions of standard type-A. The PMA sublayer transmits and receives communication data on
the bus-line in the PWM signal format. The PS sublayer has the clock generation function, the
encoding and decoding of CXPI frames and the bit-wise collision resolution logic. The
microcontroller or ASSP transmits and receives communication data in the NRZ signal format
according to the specifications of the application.

Figure 1 – PHY sub-layers overview and CXPI transceiver types
The evaluation of the EMC characteristics of CXPI transceivers shall be performed in functional
operation modes under network conditions for RF emission, RF immunity and impulse immunity
tests, and on a single unpowered transceiver IC for electrostatic discharge tests.
The aim of these tests is to determine the EMC performance on dedicated global pins of the
CXPI transceiver that are considered EMC relevant in the application. For a standard CXPI
transceiver IC and an IC with an embedded CXPI transceiver, these pins are VBAT and CXPI.
The test methods used for EMC characterization are based on the international standards for
IC EMC tests and are described in Table 2.

The RF emission, RF immunity and impulse immunity test methods are selected for the
evaluation of EMC characteristic of transceivers in functional (powered) modes. These three
test methods are based on the same approach using conductive coupling. Therefore, it is
possible to use the same test board for all tests in functional operation mode, which reduces
the effort required and increases the reproducibility and comparability of test results.
The ESD test is performed on passive (unpowered) transceiver IC on a separate test board.
A general drawing of a schematic with details of the CXPI transceiver test network for the
targeted EMC tests is described in Annex A. All measurements and tests should be done with
soldered transceivers on test boards as described in Annex B, to ensure application like
conditions and avoid setup effects by sockets.
Annex C provides example test limits and levels for CXPI transceivers in automotive application.
In general, the test definition is done for standard CXPI transceiver ICs. For ICs with embedded
CXPI transceivers some adaptations are necessary which are described in this document.
Specific adaptations shall be made individually for the dedicated IC but shall follow the general
definitions identified.
5 Test and operating conditions
5.1 Supply and ambient conditions
For all tests and measurements under operating conditions, the settings are based on systems
with a 12 V power supply, which is the main application for CXPI transceivers. If a transceiver
is designed or targeted for a higher power supply voltage, the test conditions and test targets
shall be adapted and documented accordingly. The defined supply and ambient conditions for
functional operation are given in Table 3. Although the standard voltage of VCC is 5 V, other
ext
voltages such as 3,3 V can be supplied depending on the product.

For RF emission measurements, the ambient noise floor shall be at least 6 dB below the applied
target limit and documented in the test report.
Unpowered ESD tests shall be carried out without any supply voltage, and the requirements of
ISO 10605 climatic environmental conditions shall be applied.
5.2 Test operation modes
The CXPI transceiver ICs shall be tested in powered functional operation modes and in the
unpowered mode. The functional operation modes are normal mode and sleep mode.

5.3 Test configuration
5.3.1 General test configuration for functional test
The test configuration in general consists of CXPI transceivers with mandatory components and
additional components for filtering and decoupling (CXPI node) in a minimal test network,
ext
where filtered power supplies, signals, monitoring probes and coupling networks are connected
as shown in Figure 2. Node 1 is defined as the commander node, and Node 2 is defined as the
responder node.
Figure 2 – General test configuration for tests in functional operation modes
For evaluation of RF emission, RF immunity and the impulse immunity characteristics of a CXPI
transceiver in functional operation mode, a minimal CXPI test network consisting of two CXPI
transceiver ICs shall be used. Depending on the type of transceiver, the following network
configurations are defined:
– two transceivers of the same type in case of standard CXPI transceiver IC (DUT), or
– one IC with embedded CXPI transceiver (DUT) and one standard CXPI transceiver IC, or
two transceivers of the same type of embedded CXPI transceiver IC (DUT).
NOTE In specific cases or for analyses, a deviation from this setup can be agreed between the users of this
document and noted in the test report.
The CXPI network termination and bus filter including ESD suppression devices (e.g. Zener
diode), if used, shall comply with the time constant defined in ISO 20794-4. If an optional ESD
suppression device is used (e.g. to achieve a certain ESD or impulse immunity level) it shall be
used for all other tests of this document and documented in the test report.
A general drawing of a schematic with details of the CXPI transceiver test network for the
targeted EMC tests is described in Annex A.

5.3.2 General test configuration for unpowered ESD test
The general test configuration for unpowered ESD test of CXPI transceiver ICs consists of a
single CXPI transceiver IC with mandatory external components and additional components for
filtering and decoupling on a test board with discharge coupling networks as shown in Figure 3.

Figure 3 – General test configuration for unpowered ESD test
5.3.3 Coupling ports and coupling networks for functional tests
The coupling ports and coupling networks are used to transfer disturbances to or from the test
network with a defined transfer characteristic. The schematic of the coupling ports, networks
and pins are shown in Figure 4. The values of the components depend on the test method and
are defined in Table 4. The tolerance of the components should be 1 % or less.
