Lesson 13/1776%
MODULE 13

Testing and Validation

Proving the barrier and the transfer function: Hi-Pot test procedures and their pitfalls, isolation resistance measurement, bench CTR characterization, EMC validation of isolated interfaces, thermal testing, and economical production test strategies.

⏳ Coming Soon — content in development

Learning Objectives

After completing this module, you will be able to:

Specify and run Hi-Pot tests safely and correctly
Measure isolation resistance and interpret results
Characterize CTR on the bench across conditions
Validate EMC performance of isolated interfaces
Design production test coverage for isolation circuits

Planned Topics

Hi-Pot testing
Isolation resistance
CTR measurement
EMC validation
Thermal testing

Reserved Sections

This module will follow the same interactive format as Module 1:

Interactive animations

Animated diagrams and simulations for this module are in development.

Engineering calculators

Module-specific design calculators will appear here.

Design examples

Worked examples with full component values are planned for this section.

Knowledge check

Multiple-choice, true/false, and scenario exercises will be added.

Downloadable resources

PDF notes, reference tables, and checklists will be provided.

While you wait: Module 1 — Introduction to Optocouplers — is fully available, including animations, the CTR and isolation calculators, and a complete knowledge check. Start there →
