Priority items to confirm · 5
01Package source/affected-node locations and objectives are clearUnconfirmed
Have the candidate package sources, affected nodes and measurement objective for coupling across structures been identified?
Single-path S21, passive NEXT/FEXT or rail droop cannot substitute for emissions/immunity localization. Separate debugging from compliance objectives.
Update engineering conditions →02Source/affected-node and operating observations are comparableUnconfirmed
Are repeatable paired records available for source/affected-node frequency bands, timing and operating states?
A near-field hot spot or a shared frequency alone does not establish a coupling path. Record switching states, affected-node behavior and other sources.
Update engineering conditions →03Probe and relative-position baselines are repeatableUnconfirmed
Can the probe type, frequency band, position, orientation, distance and measurement baseline be reproduced?
Different near-field measurement geometries change readings. Use near fields only for relative comparisons; hot-spot strength does not verify limits.
Update engineering conditions →04Actual shielding/return-path boundary conditions are traceableUnconfirmed
Can actual shield grounding, seams/contacts, power return paths and structural geometry be traced?
A shield-material name does not establish intact connections or return paths. Public EM tools cannot define unknown boundary conditions or establish improvement in this frequency band.
Update engineering conditions →05Operation and reversible changes support controlled comparisonsUnconfirmed
Are reversible controls and known-good comparisons available for changes in source operation, grounding/shielding or return paths?
Changing multiple variables together or using different workloads prevents an isolated shielding comparison. Use sample-specific functional and measurement limitations; do not declare immunity qualification.
