Automotive CISPR 25

Diodes' DC-DC Converter Solutions Meet CISPR 25 EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) Standards

Electromagnetic interference (EMI) remains a significant design challenge, especially in automotive power converters. CISPR 25 is a stringent standard for radiated emissions in automotive applications. It defines limits for components and whole vehicles, using quasi-peak and average detectors across a wide frequency range. Measurements are conducted in the vicinity closer to the device under testing, compared to other standards, ensuring compatibility with various radio services. To ensure compliance with stringent regulations, designers must carefully consider the sources and types of EMI. The general test requirements are: 

  • The device(s) under the test shall conform to either Peak or Quasi-peak limits as follows. 
    • For the frequencies where both Peak and Quasi-peak limits are defined, the device(s) under the test shall conform to either the Peak or the Quasi-peak limits.  
    • For the frequencies where only the Peak limits are defined, the device(s) under the test shall conform to the Peak limits. 
  • In all cases, the device(s) under the test shall conform to the Average limits.


Figure 1
shows the limits of Class 5 (Peak, Quasi-peak, and Average) and Class 4 (Peak, Quasi-peak, and Average) at various frequency ranges. Table 1 shows the limits of disturbances at various frequency ranges and various classes from 5 to 1 in more detail.
