IEC 62037-8:2022 defines a radiated passive intermodulation (PIM) test to determine PIM levels generated by a device or object when it is exposed to RF radiation. This test can be conducted on any material or object and is not limited to devices designed to propagate RF signals. This test can be conducted as either a near field or far field test as defined by the test specification in an outdoor test site or in an anechoic test chamber.

IEC 62680-1-5:2019 describes the minimum capabilities and characteristics an audio device shall support to comply with the USB. This document also provides recommendations for optional features. The Audio Device Class Definition applies to all devices or functions embedded in composite devices that are used to manipulate audio, voice, and sound-related functionality. This includes both audio data (analog and digital) and the functionality that is used to directly control the audio environment, such as Volume and Tone Control. The Audio Device Class does not include functionality to operate transport mechanisms that are related to the reproduction of audio data, such as tape transport mechanisms or CD-ROM drive control.

IEC 62680-1-8:2019 is to describe in detail all the Terminal Types that are supported by the Audio Device Class. This document is considered an integral part of the Audio Device Class Specification, although subsequent revisions of this document are independent of the revision evolution of the main Audio Device Class Specification. This is to easily accommodate the addition of new Terminal Types without impeding the core Audio Device Class Specification. The Audio Device Class Definition applies to all devices or functions embedded in composite devices. All audio signals inside an audio function start at an Input Terminal, pass through some Units, and leave the function through an Output Terminal. Units can manipulate the signal in various ways. Terminals represent the connections of the function to the outside world. As part of the Terminal descriptor, the wTerminalType field specifies the vendor’s suggested use of the Terminal. For example, a pair of speakers is a more suitable target for music output than a telephone line. This feature allows a vendor to ensure that applications use the device in a consistent and meaningful way.

This standard describes the measurement of screening attenuation by the reverberation chamber measurement method, also called mode stirred chamber method.
This standard is applicable to screening attenuation measurements of cable assemblies, cables, connectors, and passive microwave components, such as waveguides, phase shifters, diplexers/multiplexers, power dividers/combiners and etc.
Modern electronic equipments have shown a demand for methods for testing screening attenuation performance of microwave components over their whole frequency range. Convenient measurement methods have existed for lower frequencies and components of regular shape. These measurement methods are described in IEC 62153 series standards. For much higher frequencies and for components of irregular shape, the reverberation chamber method should be used. Theoretically, the reverberation chamber method has no upper limit of the measurement frequency, but it is limited by the quality and sensitivity of the measurement system, and the lower limit of the measurement frequency is restricted by the size of the reverberation chamber.

IEC 63137-1:2019 defines general requirements for standard test radio frequency (RF) connectors (grade 0), including terms and definitions, ratings and characteristics, general requirements, test methods, quality assessment procedures, and etc. Standard test radio frequency (RF) connectors (grade 0) are intended to measure grade 1 and grade 2 RF connectors for electrical performances. Typically, a standard test radio frequency (RF) connector (grade 0) is an adapter with one end (normally a precision connector interface) which can be connected with measurement equipment and the other end (normally a standard test connector interface) which can be connected with grade 1 or grade 2 connectors. This specification applies to grade 0 standard test connectors (called connector, hereinafter). The corrigendum of January 2020 applies to the French language only.
