Hi reader,
Recently, I have been talking about CE marking a lot.
And I did not like what I saw
There is a lot of confusion around the CE marking
Is that safety, right?
You just need to add a logo to your device
A laboratory gives you the CE certificate and you start selling
There is a lot of unclarity around a process that:
Is public and accessible
Is expected to be follow by a millions of people
Not following it could lead into financial penalties
In the next chapters, we will go over the whole process of getting an electronics product to the EU market
Identify the standards
Write a technical description
Perform a risk assessment
Build a technical file
Test, test, test, and test
Draft the DoC
Affix the beautiful CE mark
Maintain compliance (what everybody forgets)
See you there!
Happy building
Ignacio
