DIN EN 60118-13 VDE 0750-11:2013-07

This part of IEC 60118 in principle covers relevant EMC phenomena for hearing aids. Hearing aid immunity to high frequency fields originating from digital wireless devices such as mobile phones was originally identified as the most relevant EMC phenomena impacting hearing aids. Since the inclusion of RF generating components within the hearing aids such as digital signal processors or wireless transceivers additional EMC compliance is now included. The EMC requirements now included are radiated emissions and immunity to electrostatic discharge, power frequency magnetic fields, and radiated RF electromagnetic fields. Requirements included as not applicable are those associated with connected power and signal lines.
