EMC Consutancy & Design solutions

In my previous post, I explained why there are emissions in DC-DC converters that are insulated and how to minimize them. I have also...

As I mentioned in two previous posts, I have discussed the emission path of an insulated DCDC converter below the frequency of 80 MHz. It...

Hello again! The previous post demonstrated how an insulated DCDC converter can generate unwanted emissions at frequencies below 80 MHz....

As a matter of fact, it is quite common these days that we need some amount of insulation between our electronics and the outside world....

The 2023 was the busies time ever. Because of all the projects I had, I barely had time to write articles for EMC. In this year, I've...

The use of good ECAD is crucial to the design and development of high-quality electronic products. ECAD can provide a variety of...

Over the last ten years, I have seen so many PCBs fail conductive immunity that I could write a book about it. In most cases, the errors...

These days, we tend to encounter circuits with microcontrollers that incorporate AD/DA converters as a part of their design. As an...

As part of my job, I have been analyzing PCB layouts that have been designed by third parties. Whenever I do this, it is interesting to...

There is a feeling in me that sometimes the old books are better than the new ones. As an example, a book by Hnatek called Design of...

PDN design is not an easy task, and it can be challenging. One of the most common mistakes is to follow so-called "rules of thumb" that...

In today's world, ribbon cables are widely used as a way to interconnect PCBs with each other. They are low-cost and very easy to...

My current client has four heatsinks in his design, so in my solution, I'm designing some precautions to minimize emissions in the final...

Back in the day, when testing was conducted for EMC, it was possible to perform tests, such as immunity tests, during which the device...

The CAN interface is the most common BUS inside a car. Some years back, I was introduced to the CAN bus by a good friend of mine from...

Radiated emissions from a product don't always turn out the way we want. And having a plan for troubleshooting emissions when they exceed...

In a previous article, I discussed the common mode coupling on the PoE (Power Over Ethernet) DCDC converter that I discussed a few months...

EMC is considered by many to be a "black magic" for a number of reasons. In some cases, it may be the case that you obtain unexpected...

Today, it is common for a product to contain a motherboard and several daughter boards. In the following example, let us imagine that we...

A couple of months ago, I was testing EMC for a medical product. As the product is enclosed within a metallic enclosure, I was concerned...
