IEC Issues Three New EMC Standards on MV, HV, and EHV Power Supplies
The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) has issued three new standards on electromagnetic compatibility-specifically IEC 61000-3-6 Ed. 2.0; IEC 61000-3-7 Ed. 2.0; and IEC 61000-3-13 Ed. 1.0. All deal with the assessment of emission limits. The first 6100-3-6 is a technical report, informative in nature that provides guidance on principles that can be used as the … [Read more...]
Solving the Galvanic Corrosion Issue in EMI Shielding
Tungsten carbide/aluminum composite particles inhibit galvanic corrosion of aluminum. An on-going issue in the design of reliable EMC shielding is galvanic corrosion of aluminum. How can an aluminum frame be protected from galvanic corrosion if it contacts an EMI gasket containing non-aluminum particles? Chromate conversion coatings have long been used to reduce the corrosion … [Read more...]
Off-Chip Decoupling Measures: The EMC Perspective
Off-chip decoupling, or buffering, is a necessity. Over the years, many papers and articles have been written about optimizing off -chip IC decoupling. Many IC vendor application recommendations feature a cluster of decoupling capacitors adjacent to the IC, in close proximity to one another—viz. an electrolytic capacitor along with a small and a large value ceramic capacitor … [Read more...]

New Agers Protest Effects of WiFi
The UK’s Telegraph reports that new agers in Glastonbury have mounted protests against the town’s £34,000 free WiFi network. It seems that the electromagnetic fields associated with WiFi are being blamed for interfering with positive energy fields—i.e., chakras of the human body and ley lines of the earth. To counter this damage, astrologers, soothsayers, and alternative … [Read more...]
