Automotive.
Automotive electronics and components face thermal cycling, vibration, moisture and salt spray during their operational life. Standards such as ISO 20653 define IP protection requirements for road vehicles.
Sector overview.
Automotive electronics and component qualification
Automotive sub-systems live in a harsh thermal, vibrational and electrical environment, and modern e-mobility platforms add high-voltage and EMC complexity. Component release into a vehicle programme requires environmental, ingress and EMC test campaigns that map cleanly to OEM specifications and the underlying international standards.
Typical scope of engagement
- Ingress protection scope decision: IEC 60529 vs ISO 20653 (automotive-specific IP)
- Environmental conditioning sequences using IEC 60068-2 sub-tests
- EMC emission and immunity planning against IEC 61000 family
- Test bench specification for thermal shock, humidity, vibration and dust
- OEM specification translation into laboratory test parameters
Outcome
A traceable test plan that bridges the OEM acceptance specification and the international test methods, allowing component suppliers to demonstrate compliance in a single coherent campaign.
