The Sera
TM
with DPOAE uses an improved method of stimuli level control, which more accurately delivers the specified
intensity in the full range of ear canals, from infants to adults. The applicability of the IEC 60645-6 standard is currently
limited to adult ears. Therefore, in order to better serve a market with a product that provides more accurate stimulus
levels to a wide range of ear canal volumes (specifically infants), we have elected to utilize a more comprehensive
calibration procedure for DPOAEs that is outside the scope of IEC 60645-6 for some protocols.
All DPOAE protocols that include IEC in the name use the specified IEC calibration method.
