In dealing with EMC compliance, companies need to mitigate three cost-drivers: EMC testing, increased marginal cost per component due to CE certification, and the involvement of a Competent Body. Most companies leverage one of three compliance alternatives to achieve EMC conformity:

Article 10(1) - testing to harmonized standards;
Article 10(2) - TCF without testing;
Article 10(2) - TCF with testing.

SIMCOM, as project manager, can support a manufacturer in three key functions:

Development of the rationale for the TCF;
Identification and negotiation of the appropriate test measures; and
Arbitration with the most capable and reasonable Competent Body.

SIMCOM can also provide "TCF" tools, which serve as guidance documents for:

Creating the TCF rationale;
Executing the EMC test evaluation; and
Understanding the EMC test plan.
