Analysis of Airborne Equipment Voltage Spike Test Standards

RTCA/DO-160F,GJB151A/152A-97 and GJB181-86 all involve the voltage spike(or power line spike conducted susceptibility) test,which is emphasized in the assessment of the equipment power supply.The test requirements of the voltage spike are not the same for the purpose in these three standards.The test conditions,objects and methods are compared,and finally,according to their different usage scopes and applicable objects,the result shows that RTCA/DO-160F is more flexible,GJB151A/152A-97 is basic for the military airborne equipment,and GJB181-86 is well-targeted and more demanding.
