Interference Technology

My old colleague and good friend Tim Williams sent me the story below for inclusion in EMI Stories/Banana Skins, and I found it so interesting in so many ways that I decided to publish it as a Blog. In so […]

Introduction: MIL-STD-461G was issued in December 2015 incorporating many changes throughout the document prompting user questions or interpretations.  Laboratory situations arise where the generic guidance requires specific situational decisions and the most common tests such as RE102 are included.  The […]

Many (perhaps all) of EMC standards that are listed under the EMC Directive, that set limits for mains harmonic emissions, have exclusions (‘let-outs’) for certain types of equipment, especially: (these examples are from IEC/EN 61000-3-2 Ed.5:2018) Lighting equipment with a […]

One of the world’s best performing oscillators available from IQD As application requirements drive the need for greater data rates, more oscillator devices with ultra-low phase noise are required. This type of application is especially prevalent in today’s connected world. […]
