Test Box Measurement
Standard and Non Standard Tests
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| SSPL | Frequency response at full volume with an input of 90dB |
| OSPL90 | Output SPL with input of 90dB at full volume |
| Maximum Gain | Gain of hearing aid measured at full volume with an input of 50dB |
| Gain at Reference Test Frequency | Maximum gain measured at the reference test frequency |
| Reference Test Gain | Gain measured at a simulated user setting with an input of 60dB |
| Harmonic Distortion | Total harmonic Distortion measured at the reference test gain at a variety of frequencies |
| Input Noise | Internal noise of the hearing aid with no input signal |
| Battery Current | Amount of current used by the battery as measured with the battery pill |
| Induction Coil Sensitivity | Signal strength of the induction coil at full volume with the hearing aid moved to achieve maximum response |
| AGC Knee Point | Measured using an input output function (point at which compression ratio/gradient changes |
| AGC Attack and Release Times | Time taken for compression to be start and stop where a loud sound is applied |
| Frequency Response | Gain – frequency response at the reference test gain |
| Input - Output Curves | Measured at one frequency with different input levels, output levels are measured and plotted to measure gain at each level |
| Non - Standard test using composite signals (2) | Gain frequency response curve at any input level Output frequency response curve at any input level |
| Non - Standard test using pure tones (4) | Distortion frequency curves Input output curves Gain frequency response curve at any input level Output frequency response curve at any input level |
