21、NEARITY IN RESISTORS 1 Scope Non-linearity testing is a method to evaluate the integrity of a resistive element. It may be applied as an effective inline screening method suitable to detect and eliminate potential infant mortality failures in passive components. The method is fairly rapid, convenien

22、t, and the associated equipment is relatively inexpensive. Typical effects causing non-linearity on resistors are e.g. inhomogeneous spots within a resistive film, traces of film left in the spiraling grooves, or contact instability between a connecting lead or termination and the resistive element.

23、 This International Standard specifies a method of measurement and associated test conditions to assess the magnitude of non-linear distortion generated in a resistor. This method is applied if prescribed by a relevant component specification, or if agreed between a customer and a manufacturer. 2 No

IEC 60068-1, Environmental testing Part 1: General and guidance 3 Terms and definitions For the puposes of this document the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 electromotive force e.m.f. difference in potential that tends to give rise to an electric current 3.2 non-linearity devi

26、ation of a components impedance from Ohms law, resulting in voltage of harmonic frequencies when subjected to sinusoidal current 3.3 third harmonic ratio A3ratio of the fundamental voltage over the e.m.f. of the third harmonic Note 1 to entry: The third harmonic ratio is expressed in dB. Note 2 to e

27、ntry: The third harmonic ratio has been addressed before as third harmonic attenuation. This historic convention is misleading as it wrongly suggests harmonic frequencies originating from the test equipment being attenuated or filtered by the components under test. The misleading term should therefo

28、re be avoided. BS EN 60440:2012 6 60440 IEC:2012 4 Method of measurement 4.1 Measurement principle A pure sinusoidal current is passed through the component under test. If the impedance of the component is not perfectly linear, the voltage across the component will be distorted and contain harmonics

29、. One or more of these harmonics can be measured and the magnitude of these distortions is a measure of the non-linearity in the component. It is recommended to measure the third harmonic, as it is the dominant one. The third harmonic voltage appearing across a component needs to be separated from t

30、he fundamental voltage and from any other harmonic voltage for the measurement. This is accomplished by a filter circuit letting the harmonic voltage pass through while featuring very high impedance at the fundamental frequency. Also, the generator of the fundamental frequency needs to feature very

31、high impedance at the third harmonic frequency so as not to act as a load to the generated distortions. Hence, the equivalent circuit of the generator part operating at the fundamental frequency is quite simple, as shown in Figure 1. U1RTI1IEC 1432/12 Key I1Sinusoidal current U1Fundamental voltage a

33、 harmonic generator in series. This signal source loads the measuring system represented by its impedance as seen from the test terminals, see Figure 2.

35、ge U3 33T333ERRRU += (1) Hence, the e.m.f. of the third harmonic E3in the component can be determined by 333T31 URRE += (2) The corrective term for the reduction of U3to the origin E3is +=33T101log20RR (3) In many cases it can be shown for a range of resistors under test that the impedance RT3at the

36、 third harmonic frequency is equal or very close to the impedance RTat the fundamental frequency. Then the corrective term in decibels is +=3T101log20RR (4) NOTE 1 For fixed film resistors this equality of RT3and RTcan generally be assumed with sufficient accuracy. Numeric values for the corrective

37、term can be obtained from Figure 3 or for specific sets of impedance R3and specimen resistance RTfrom Table 1.

38、is between 10 kHz and 40 kHz. This frequency range enables the test circuit to be set up without too much difficulty. NOTE 2 Another method is using a bridge which is balanced at the fundamental frequency, where the harmonics appear across the bridge diagonal. This method requires individual balanci

39、ng of the bridge for each specimen, which may be suitable for occasional use in a laboratory environment. 4.2 Measuring circuit Figure 4 shows a block schematic of a suitable measuring circuit. A distortion-free impedance matching device may be used to switch R3in order to achieve good matching to t

40、he test specimen RT. Examples of suitable values of R3are 10 ; 100 ; 1 k; 10 k and 100 k; these values are used for specifying the test conditions in Table 1. The suitability of the measuring circuit for measurements on resistors with resistance values covering a wide range depends on the lowest and

41、 highest available impedance R3 of the circuit. The range of values for R3proposed above grants suitability for measurements on specimen RTwith their resistance being in the range of 1 to at least 10 M. However, there is an overriding influence of the correcting term depending on the ratio of resist

45、d to the test terminals shall not be higher than 0,2 V at R3= 1 k. 4.3.3 Third harmonic ratio of the measuring system The third harmonic ratio ( )3110log20 EU shall be higher than 140 dB for most of the impedance range when the required dissipation P is applied to a virtually linear component. The r

46、equired dissipation is 0,25 VA, as given in Table 1, or a value prescribed by the relevant component specification, e.g with reference to the rated dissipation. 4.3.4 Power amplifier The power amplifier shall be capable of delivering an apparent power of four times the required dissipation into a re

47、sistive component under test, in order to ensure sufficient linearity. Hence, the power amplifier shall be capable of delivering an apparent power of 1 VA if the required dissipation is 0,25 VA as given in Table 1. BS EN 60440:2012 10 60440 IEC:2012 4.3.5 Voltmeter The error of the voltmeter for mea

48、surement of the voltage U1at the fundamental frequency shall be less than 5 % of its full scale deflection. The error of the voltmeter for measurement of the voltage U3at the third harmonic frequency shall be less than 10 % of its full scale deflection. 4.3.6 Filter The cut-off frequency of the low-

49、pass filter shall be immediately above the fundamental freuqency f1. The band-pass filter shall permit the third-harmonic frequency f3to pass through, while it shall provide very high attenuation at the fundamental frequency f1. Precautions shall be taken to avoid non-linear distortion from the components near the test specimen in the low-pass and band-pass filters. The filter inductors for instance shall not contain cores of magnetic ma
