This part of IEC 60268 applies to transducers converting an electrical input signal into a
mechanical or acoustical output signal. However, if the electrical input terminals and the surface
of the radiator are accessible, this document can also apply to passive and active sound
systems such as loudspeakers, headphones, TV-sets, multi-media devices, personal portable
audio devices, automotive sound systems and professional equipment. This document
describes only electrical and mechanical measurements that help assess the transfer behaviour
of the device under test (DUT). This includes operating the DUT in both the small- and large-signal
domains. The influence of the target application's acoustical boundary conditions (e.g.
car interior) can also be considered in the physical evaluation of the sound system. Perception
and cognitive evaluations of the reproduced sound and the impact of perceived sound quality
are outside the scope of this document.All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
