BF vs. CF – Electrical Safety in Medical Devices
The Impact of the Power Supply on Medical Devices

Although the power supply itself is not a medical device, it plays a crucial role in the medical classification of the overall system. In this webinar, you will learn about the different classifications and how to choose the right power supply for your application.

The webinar focuses on power supply considerations when developing medical devices in accordance with IEC 60601-1. Especially for electrically powered medical devices that have direct or even partial patient contact, stricter requirements apply regarding insulation levels and leakage currents. Since IEC 60601-1 certification also includes compliance with electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), achieving BF or CF isolation at the device level can be an additional challenge. That’s why it’s important to consider the power supply design early on, to minimize any potential negative impact on the rest of the system.

  • Potential patient contact and the various classification types

  • The different insulation levels (MOOP and MOPP)

  • The impact of the power supply on device safety and performance

  • How to select and design the power supply based on different applications
