Key Issues of EMI / EMC

If you are an EE, you want to know why EMI testing is done, how it is conducted, and what the typical failures are, even if a special department or an outside EMI company does the actual testing.  This course gives you the EMI information you need including design considerations at both CAE and CAD to provide a compliant radiation/susceptibility product.  You’ll examine and identify ways to prevent common EMI/EMC problems regarding power supplies, cables, connectors, slots, discontinuity of ground planes and antenna loops.

We offer this and all courses as On Site Training
