The following dates are fixed: latest date by which thi

21、s document has to be implemented at national level by publication of an identical national standard or by endorsement (dop) 2014-09-23 latest date by which the national standards conflicting with this document have to be withdrawn (dow) 2016-09-23 This document supersedes EN 50332-2:2003. EN 50332-2

22、:2013 includes the following significant technical changes with respect to EN 50332-2:2003: - deletion of limits; - addition of digital signals; - adaptations to use the term “personal music players“. EN 50332, Sound system equipment: Headphones and earphones associated with personal music players M

23、aximum sound pressure level measurement methodology, is composed with the following parts: Part 1: General method for “one package equipment“; Part 2: Matching of sets with headphones if either or both are offered separately, or are offered as one package equipment but with standardised connectors b

24、etween the two allowing to combine components of different manufacturers or different design. The Part 1 of this standard describes conditions and procedures for combination of player units and headphones sold as “one-package sets”. The sound pressure limitation (SPL) of these sets is lost when play

25、ers or headphones with standardised sockets and plugs are arbitrarily combined. This Part 2 provides measurement methods for the matching values which guarantee the SPL limit also for the aforementioned condition. _ BS EN 50332-2:2013EN 50332-2:2013 - 4 - 1 Scope This Part 2 of EN 50332 specifies me

26、thods of measuring the matching values for the use of personal music players and headphones/earphones defined for the use with those and with standardised connectors or interfaces allowing to combine components of different manufacturers or different design sold separately in order to avoid possible

27、 hearing impairment by excessive sound pressure resulting from them. Compared with “one-package sets“ the sound pressure level at the ear cannot be fixed by only one condition but needs at least two characteristics, one each for player and the headphones/earphones, defined by the matching values for

28、 their connection. Requirements for protection against excessive sound pressure from personal music players are given in EN 60950-1:2006/A12:2011 and EN 60065:2002/A12:2011. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indis

33、ge for a wide band signal at an output SPL of 94 dB, defined in EN 60268-7:2011, 8.3.4. BS EN 50332-2:2013- 5 - EN 50332-2:2013 4 Basic conditions for specifications and measurements For basic conditions on measurements of the maximum sound pressure level, reference is made to EN 50332-1. 5 Player c

34、haracteristics and methods of measurement 5.1 Maximum output voltage VmThe maximum output voltage of the player is a wide band value measured at the headphone output under the conditions given in 5.2. 5.2 Method of measurement and conditions 5.2.1 Input signal The player input signal shall be as spe

35、cified in EN 50332-1:2013, Clause 5 recorded on the relevant medium with the specified level. 5.2.2 Operating conditions During the test, the power source used shall not deviate more than 3 %. When testing, all controls shall be adjusted to the maximum sound pressure level. For example: - noise redu

36、ction system : OFF; - volume control : all hardware, operating system, and application volume and gain settings exposed to a normal user shall be activated and maximised; - tone control : all frequency equalisation settings exposed to a normal user shall be activated and adjusted to maximise the sou

37、nd pressure level. All hardware and software processing systems, gain and tone control settings shall be set such as to reach the maximum sound level output. The analogue audio output shall be loaded with a resistive load of 32 per channel. NOTE The load of 32 takes into account the fact that some d

38、evices derive the headphone output from a higher voltage over an internal resistor of for example 50 . These devices would result in too high output voltage at no load measurement condition. 5.2.3 Method of measurement for analogue audio outputs The measuring instruments shall conform to: - EN 61672

39、-1, class 1 (for sound level meters); - EN 61260, class 1 (for 1/3 octave analysers). The maximum output voltage Vmshall be defined as unweighted r.m.s. voltage at the load, using an averaging time of 30 s or more. 5.2.4 Method of measurement for digital audio outputs The maximum output level, Lmsha

40、ll be defined as an average of digital signal, using an averaging time of 30 s or more. The digital input test signal is defined in EN 50332-1 as -10 dBFS. Digital player outputs should provide corresponding values for safety reason (see EN 60950-1, EN 60065 and EN 62368-1). BS EN 50332-2:2013EN 503

41、32-2:2013 - 6 - 6 Headphone/Earphone characteristics and methods of measurement 6.1 Measuring equipment The measuring equipment shall be in accordance with EN 61672-1 when connected with a HATS microphone. It shall specifically comply with the requirement for “an integrating-averaging sound level me

42、ter that measures time-average sound level. 6.2 Simulated programme signal characteristic voltage This characteristic is defined in 3.2. 6.3 Method of measurement arrangement and conditions 6.3.1 Input signal The test signals shall be the programme simulation noise as defined in HD 483.1 S2. Further

43、 details are given in the respective subclauses of EN 50332-1:2013, Clause 5. 6.3.2 Source impedance of analogue input devices The output impedance of the test signal source shall be 2 . 6.3.3 Acoustical measurement method The acoustical measurements are done by using a suitable HATS as defined in E

44、N 50332-1:2013, 4.2. 6.3.4 Headphones/earphones fit Headphones/earphones shall be positioned on the measuring device correctly, so that the measured sound pressure level is maximised. The manufacturers instructions for correct use have to be taken into account. The headphones/earphones intended to b

45、e connected to a player are currently binaural. However, the monaural headphones/earphones are also within the scope of the standard. They will be placed on the HATS according to the principles described in EN 50332-1:2013, 6.2. It shall be checked that the position of the headphones/earphones on th

46、e HATS corresponds to the maximum signal level measured by the HATS. For binaural headphones/earphones both left and right are measured. 6.3.5 Measurement and evaluation See EN 50332-1:2013, 6.4. The simulated programme signal characteristic voltage of analogue headphone input is the input signal vo

47、ltage when the sound pressure level reaches 94 dB SPL A-weighted. Within guaranteed linear operation of the headphone/earphone the value can be calculated from results with other SPL output. The LAeq,Tof a digital headphone/earphone input is the acoustic output sound pressure level measured in the t

48、est protocol of EN 50332-1:2013, Clause 6 with the input signal as defined in 6.3.1 of this standard.
