2.2.2 Test Results
The first test done is to get a baseline of the EVM without the sensor coil included. The baseline test shown in Figure 2-11 only has the EVM with the battery connected.

BaselineNext, a 7-MHz sensor coil is attached to the EVM and the test is run again, see the results in Figure 2-12.

Sensor CoilThe added sensor coil has a significant impact on the test performance but the test still passes. A similar result also occurs when the coil is replaced with a 12.6-MHz coil, see Figure 2-13.

Sensor CoilThe frequency of the spikes in the test data increased as the coil frequency increased. Because of this, the coil frequency is an important part of the design when considering other EMI noise sources or any keep-out-regions for the system requirements.
