According to military standards, passive electromagnetic LC filters of HEMP are recommended for use in all kinds of special-purpose electronic equipment. Experience gained by military specialists is usually employed when developing HEMP protection means and measures for civil equipment. Does it make sense to use extremely expensive and bulky HEMP filters for civil equipment? … [Read more...]
Doing Things That Usually Do Not Work
“If you’re not making mistakes, then you’re not doing anything.” — John Wooden Over the years, I have seen several things that make me scratch my head. Many of them are things I have done (there, I admitted it). I would like to look at these situations to (maybe) help not to make the same mistakes. So, to be clear: Do not do these things. Concerning Shielding One would … [Read more...]
EMC Confidence Checking
I was recently working with a manufacturer of stand-alone ticket machines, who had big problems with Ethernet-related emissions. Long story short – it was the Ethernet hub they had incorporated in their machine. They had assumed that all CE-marked Ethernet hubs would be equally good for EMC, and they had several different types lying around their design department. We tested … [Read more...]
Mains Harmonic Current Emissions are Always Bad – It is Risky to Rely on the Limits or Exclusions in the Standards
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 rated power of less than but not equal to 5W Equipment with a rated power of 75W or less, e.g. … [Read more...]
Key Points to Remember While Choosing PCB Assembly Company
Once you have designed a PCB and have completed everything that needs to be done before the assembly process, you would require a PCB assembly company to assemble your PCB without any problems. After all, you've been working considerably hard to assemble the layout and the design of the PCB. You would want to be convinced that your PCB gets well-assembled. To ensure that the … [Read more...]
Securing New 5G Physical Assets with Electronic Access Control
The 5G era of mobile computing and communications is rapidly moving forward. 5G stands for the fifth generation of wireless infrastructure—a massive upscale of network technology. It will provide data transfer rates faster than the blink of an eye, reducing latency for even the most data-hungry applications, high bandwidth, and greater opportunities for connectivity and … [Read more...]
Review: EMI Devices Harmonic Comb Generator
Harmonic comb generators are handy tools for validating open area test sites or semi-anechoic chambers and I've written extensively on how to use these for various other applications (see References). Harmonic comb generators produce a range of narrow band harmonics that are typically very stable in amplitude and frequency. One of the major uses is to position one in place … [Read more...]
