Hi guys,
I'm developing a USB 2.0 high speed device that is currently very much functional. However, I'm having some problems with radiated emissions test with both FCC and CE standards. Based on the sweep from
30-1000MHz, I'm pretty convinced it's a USB 2.0 problem, because I see distinct spikes at 240, 480, 720, 960MHz, which are probably harmonics of the 480MHz USB 2.0 sweep. These spikes occur on 2 different PCs that I use, and they disappear when I use another laptop that only has a USB 1.1 port.I'm wondering if anyone has had experience designing USB 2.0 devices for FCC/CE compliance? I understand that many factors could cause these spikes, ranging from the power source, actual test PC used, cable length/shielding/gauge, cable layout, etc...I'm wondering which ones are the ones that cause the biggest difference. Booking the test lab is kinda expensive and I have no equipment to perform debugging so I hope I can do the most I can before hand to solve this problem before showing up at the lab.
Thanks in advance!
