22、BS EN 62496-3:201162496-3 IEC:2011 5 INTRODUCTION Performance standards define standard electro-optical performance under a set of prescribed conditions and contain a series or a set of tests and measurements (which may or may not be grouped into a specific schedule) with clearly defined conditions,
23、 severities and pass/fail criteria. The tests are intended to be run as an initial design verification to prove the products ability to satisfy the requirements of a specific application, market sector or user group. The following clauses in this part of IEC 62496 contain those sets of performance c
24、riteria that have been standardized for international use. A product that has been shown to meet all the requirements of a performance standard may be declared as complying with that performance standard. Products from one manufacturer that are tested to a performance standard will operate together
25、within the bounds of the criteria set by the performance standard. There is however no guarantee that products from different suppliers having the same standard interface, which have been independently tested to a performance standard, will meet the same levels of optical performance when mated toge
26、ther as those supplied by one manufacturer. Compliance with a performance standard demonstrates that a product has passed a design verification test; it is not a guarantee of lifetime assured performance or reliability. Both service life tests and reliability testing must be the subject of a separat
27、e test schedule where the tests and severities selected are such that they are truly representative of the requirements of these test programmes. Consistency of manufacture should be maintained using a recognized quality assurance programme, while the reliability of the product should be evaluated u
28、sing the procedures recommended in IEC 62005 series and IEC 61751. When possible, tests and measurements should be selected from the IEC 61300 series. Where this is not possible, the required test method should be attached as an annex to the performance standard. BS EN 62496-3:2011 6 62496-3 IEC:201
29、1 OPTICAL CIRCUIT BOARDS Part 3: Performance standards General and guidance 1 Scope This part of IEC 62496 covers general information on optical circuit board performance standards. It defines those tests and severities which form the performance categories or general operating service environments
30、and identifies those tests which are considered to be product-specific. Test and severity details are given in Annex A. IEC 62496-3 provides references, definitions and rules for creating optical circuit board performance standards, as well as related information pertinent to the subject. Subsequent
31、 parts of the IEC 62496-3 series are sequentially numbered and contain performance criteria for specific applications. Each part will be added as the performance criteria become standardized for international use. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the ap

36、hich are chosen to simulate a particular operating service environment BS EN 62496-3:201162496-3 IEC:2011 7 3 . 3 performance standard standard designed to verify a product which is capable of meeting the requirements of a particular service environment NOTE It contains a combination of those tests,
37、 together with their severities and pass-fail criteria, which shall be applied to all optical circuit boards for a particular performance category, together with those which are considered specific to that particular product in that environment. 3 . 4 product specific tests those tests which are con
38、sidered to be specific to a particular product type, e.g. flexible optical circuit boards, rigid optical circuit board, optical fibre circuit boards, or waveguide circuit boards NOTE Where there is a specific IP (International Protection, IEC 60529) for a product, this shall be the subject of a sepa
39、rate test and shall be included in the relevant product performance standard. 3 . 5 performance standard test report report to be produced on completion of testing to a performance standard 4 Preparation of a performance standard 4.1 General In the preparation of a performance standard, the followin
40、g items shall be considered and instructions pertaining to them included: product definition, tests, details, requirements, sample size, groupings/sequences, pass/fail criteria, reference product definition. 4.2 Product definition The product to which the performance standard relates shall be clearl
41、y defined. 4.3 Tests The tests to be carried out on the product in order for it to meet the performance standard shall be clearly defined. No ambiguity or options shall be allowed. The tests selected, combined with the severities/durations, groupings/sequencing, method used and pass/fail criteria, s
42、hould be indicative of a defined product location within a service environment. The test method to be used shall be clearly defined for each test. Wherever possible the test method shall be selected from IEC referenced tests; where this is not possible other test methods may be defined. If a previou
43、sly undefined test method is used, the test method and details to be specified shall be included in an annex of the performance standard. BS EN 62496-3:2011 8 62496-3 IEC:2011 4.4 Details Severities, durations and the details to be considered shall be given for all tests and measurements presented i
44、n a performance standard. These shall be directly related to the requirements specified for a product location within a service environment to which the performance standard is intended to correspond. No ambiguity or options shall be allowed. 4.5 Requirements The performance requirements that shall
45、be satisfied in order for the product to comply with the standard shall be specified for each test and/or measurement. No ambiguities shall be allowed. 4.6 Sample size The sample size for each test shall be defined in an annex of the performance standard. No deviations shall be allowed. 4.7 Grouping
46、s/sequences Test groups and test sequences shall be defined in an annex as required by the user, user group or manufacturer. The number of samples for each test group shall also be defined in the annex. Where prohibitive cost is associated with the active devices, numbers of samples may be reduced.
47、4.8 Pass/fail criteria The pass/fail criteria shall be unambiguously stated for each test within the performance standard. No deviation or exceptions shall be allowed. 4.9 Reference product definition Where a reference product is called for in any of the test and measurement methods used within a pe
48、rformance standard, the reference product shall be clearly defined in an annex of the performance standard. 4.10 Performance standard test report Conformance with a performance standard shall be supported by a test report. The test report may be prepared by an independent test laboratory. The test r
49、eport shall clearly demonstrate that the tests were carried out as per the requirements of the performance standard and provide full details of the tests, together with a pass/fail declaration. Any product failing a particular test or sequence of tests shall be reported in the performance standard test report. The cause of the failure shall be given and any corrective action taken shall be described. If no design changes are made to the product, the test or test
