  2. \chapter{Theory}\label{cha:theory}
  3. This chapter introduces the theory and facts that are related to this project. It describes the necessary parts of the ISO standards, measurement theory and analysis of acquired data.
  4. \section{Previous research}
  5. No previous research relevant to the reuse of test equipment was found. Though there is research available on smaller specific topics that are covered by this project, such as measurement techniques and curve fitting. Those findings are presented in this theory chapter.
  6. \section{ISO standards}
  7. The ISO organisation, International Organization for Standardization, was founded in 1947 and has since published more than 22,500 International Standards. ISO standards does not only cover the electronic industry, but almost every industry. The purpose of the standards is to ensure safety, reliability and quality of products in a unified way, making international trade easier. The name ISO comes from the Greek word \emph{isos}, which means \emph{equal}.
  8. \cite{site:iso_about}
  9. A standard is developed and maintained by a Technical Committee, TC, consisting of, amongst others, experts in the area that the standard concerns \cite{site:iso_who_develops_standards}. A new standard is only developed when there exists a need for this from the industry or other groups that may require it \cite{site:iso_developing_standards}. Existing standards are automatically scheduled for review five years after its last publication, but can manually be reviewed before that time by the committee \cite{iso_guidance_review}. During the review process, it will be decided if the standard is still valid, need to be updated or if it should be removed \cite{iso_guidance_review}.
  10. The naming convention used for ISO standards is in the format \emph{number-part:year}, where the \emph{number} is the identifier to the unique ISO standard, \emph{part} denotes the part of the standard if it is divided into several parts and \emph{year} is the publishing year. For example, the name \emph{ISO~7637-2:2011} refers to part 2 of the ISO~7637 standard published in 2011, whilst \emph{ISO~7637-2:2004} would refer to an earlier version of the exact same document published in 2004.
  11. To get hold of a copy of a standard, one need to buy it from ISO store or from a national ISO member. \cite{site:iso_shopping_faqs}
  12. \section{ISO~7637 and ISO~16750}
  13. \todo[fundera på uppdelningen av stycken och underrubriker här, och allmän formattering]
  14. \textbf{The ISO~7637 standard}, \emph{Road vehicles — Electrical disturbances from
  15. conduction and coupling}, concerns the electrical environment in road vehicles. The standard consists of, at the time of writing, four parts.
  16. Part 1, \emph{Definitions and general considerations}, defines some abbreviations and technical terms that are used throughout the standard. It also intended use of the standard. \cite{iso_7637_1}
  17. Part 2, \emph{Electrical transient conduction along supply lines only}, defines the test procedures related to disturbances that are carried along the supply lines of a product. Both emission, disturbances created by the DUT, and immunity, the DUT's capability to withstand disturbances, are covered. This part defines the test pulses that are of interest for this project, and the verification of them. \cite{iso_7637_2}
  18. Part 3, \emph{Electrical transient transmission by capacitive and inductive coupling via lines other than supply lines}, defines immunity tests against disturbances on other interfaces that the power supply. It focuses on test setups and different ways of coupling the signals. \cite{iso_7637_3}
  19. Part 5, \emph{Enhanced definitions and verification methods for harmonization of pulse generators according to ISO~7637}, proposes an alternative verification method of the test pulses defined in ISO~7637-2. The main difference from the method described in ISO~7637-2 is that the DC voltage, $U_A$, should not only be 0~V during the verification, but also be set to the nominal voltage, $U_N$. This will not be considered deeply in this report, since it is only a proposal and makes the verification equipment more difficult. \cite{iso_7637_5}
  20. The ISO~16750, \emph{Road vehicles -- Environmental conditions and testing for electrical and electronic equipment}, concerns different environmental factors that a product might face in a vehicle, such as mechanical shocks, temperature changes and acids. Part 2, \emph{Electrical Loads}, of the standard deals with some electrical aspects that was previously part of the ISO~7637 standard. This is the only part of ISO~16750 that will be considered.
  21. \cite{iso_16750_1, iso_16750_2}
  22. \section{Test pulses}
  23. All test pulses defined in ISO~7637 and ISO~16750 are supposed to simulate events that can occur in a real vehicle's electrical environment, that equipment must be able to withstand. The properties of these test pulses are well defined, to allow for unified testing regardless of which test lab that performs the test. In the real world, however, the disturbances might of course differ from the test pulses since a real case environment is not controlled. \cite{iso_7637_2,iso_16750_2, comparison_iso_7637_real_world}
  24. The test pulses of interest defined in ISO~7637 are denoted \emph{Test pulse 1}, \emph{Test pulse 2a}, \emph{Test pulse 3a} and \emph{Test pulse 3b}. The test pulse of interest defined in ISO~16750 is denoted \emph{Load dump Test A}. There are more pulses and tests defined in these standards, but those are not in the scope of this project.
  25. The general characteristics in common for all pulses are the DC voltage $U_A$, the surge voltage $U_s$, the rise time $t_r$, the pulse duration $t_d$ and the internal resistance $R_i$. The internal resistance is only in series with the pulse generator, not the DC power source. For pulses that are supposed to be applied several times, $t_1$ usually denotes the time between two consecutive pulses.
  26. An important observation is that the definition of the surge voltage, $U_s$, differs in ISO~7637 and ISO~16750 as seen in \autoref{fig:us_difference}. In this report, only the definition from ISO~7637 is used.
  27. \todo[Bild med kurvornas parametrar, båda ISO standardernas definitioner]
  28. \subsection{Test pulse 1}
  29. This pulse simulates the event of the power supply being disconnected while the DUT is connected to other inductive loads. This leads to the other inductive loads generating a voltage transient of reversed polarity to the DUT's supply lines.
  30. In the standard there are two additional timings associated to this pulse, $t_2$ and $t_3$, which are defining the disconnection time for the power supply during the voltage transient. In practice $t_3$ can be very short, specified to less than 100 µs, and the step seen in \autoref{fig:pulse1} might be too short to be clearly distinguishable when seen on a oscilloscope.
  31. \todo[Två bilder, en på kurvan och en på kretsen som orsakar den. En tabell med parametervärden.]
  32. \subsection{Test pulse 2a}
  33. This pulse simulates the event of a load, parallel to the DUT, being disconnected. The inductance in the wiring harness will then generate a positive voltage transient on the DUT's supply lines.
  34. \todo[Två bilder, en på kurvan och en på kretsen som orsakar den. En tabell med parametervärden.]
  35. \subsection{Test pulse 3a and 3b}
  36. Test pulse 3a and 3b simulates transients ``which occur as a result of the switching process'' as stated in the standard \cite{iso_7637_2}. The formulation is not very clear, but is interperted and explained by Frazier and Alles \cite{comparison_iso_7637_real_world} to be the result of a mechanical switch breaking an inductive load. These transients are very short, compared to the other pulses, and the repetition time is very short. The pulses are sent in bursts, grouping a number of pulses together and separating groups by a fixed time.
  37. These pulses contain high frequency components, up to 100~MHz, and special care must be taken when running tests with them as well as when verifying them.
  38. \todo[Fyra bilder, två på kurvorna, en på burst och en på kretsen som orsakar den? En tabell med parametervärden.]
  39. \subsection{Load dump Test A}
  40. The Load dump Test A simulates the event of disconnecting a battery that is charged by the vehicles alternator, the current that the alternator is driving will give rise to a long voltage transient.
  41. This pulse has the longest duration, $t_d$, of all the test pulses. It also has the lowest internal resistance. These properties makes it capable of transferring high energies into a low impedance DUT or dummy load.
  42. Prior to 2011, the Load dump Test A was part of the ISO~7637-2 standard under the name \emph{Test pulse 5a}. The surge voltage $U_s$ was in the older standard, \mbox{ISO~7637-2:2004}, defined as the voltage between the DC offset voltage $U_A$ and the maximum voltage. In the newer standard, \mbox{ISO~16750-2:2012}, $U_s$ is defined as the absolute peak voltage. Only the former definition is used in this paper, $U_s = \hat{U} - U_A$.
  43. \todo[Två bilder, en på kurvan och en på kretsen som orsakar den. En tabell med parametervärden.]
  44. \subsection{Test setup}
  45. During a test, the nominal voltage is first applied between the plus and minus terminal of the DUT's power supply input. Then a series of test pulses are applied between the same terminals. The pulses are repeated at specified intervals, $t_1$, as depicted in \autoref{fig:doubleexprep}.

  57. \end{figure}
  58. \subsection{Verification}
  59. The test pulses are to be verified before they are applied to the DUT. The voltage levels and the timings are to be measured, with and without a matched load attached $R_L$ = $R_i$. The standard omits the rise time constraint when the load is attached, except for pulse 3a and 3b. \cite{iso_7637_2}
  60. The verification is to be conducted with $U_A$ set to 0. There is, however, a proposal to set $U_A$ to the actual nominal voltage during the verification process, as the behaviour of the pulse generators has proven differ in this case \cite{iso_7637_5}. In this project $U_A = 0$ will be used.
  61. The limits, and tolerances, for the pulses are summarised in \autoref{tab:verification-list}. The matched loads are to be within 1\% of the nominal value. \cite{iso_7637_2}

  90. \section{Differences between the new and the old standard}
  91. Since the equipment used the project is designed for the older version of the standard, ISO~7637-2:2004 and possibly even ISO~7637-1:1990 together with ISO~7637-2:1990, the differences of importance between these will be presented in this chapter to see what parameters might be a problem for the older equipment to fulfil.
  92. One of the most notable differences is the removal of a test pulse from ISO~7637-2 that was called \emph{Pulse 5a} and \emph{Pulse 5b}, this was instead introduced to the ISO~16750-2 under the name \emph{Load dump A} and \emph{Load dump B}.
  93. \subsection{Definitions}
  94. Since there are now two different standards, ISO~7637 and ISO~16750, that are describing the pulses some differences in definitions have been introduced.

  142. \section{Measurement}
  143. There are several measurement methods needed during the project. To verify the test pulses, voltage has to be measured over time. To verify the dummy loads, resistance has to be measured. To verify the attenuators, the magnitude response has to be measured. This chapter describes the necessary measurement theory required for this project.

  145. The circuit designers companion p.99
  146. \subsection{High Voltage}
  147. The highest voltage that can be generated by the pulse generators is 1500~V, which is higher than any of the standards require but will serve as the design goal for the verification equipment. This is a higher voltage than most acquisition devices can measure without the use of external attenuators \cite{source}.

  170. All of the test pulses applied to the vehicle equipment can individually be described mathematically by variations of the double exponential function shown in \autoref{eq:doubleexp} and \autoref{fig:doubleexp}. The properties of interest, the ones which are specified in the standards, are the surge voltage $ U_s $, the rise time $ t_r $, the duration $ t_d $ and the repetition time $ t_1 $. \cite{iso_7637_2}
