Gaps In Return Planes – Bad News for EMI
Currently, there is an ongoing discussion among SI and EMC engineers on the fine points of PC board design for best signal integrity and EMI performance. Among the topics it seems designing in gaps or slits in ground return planes always comes up. Gaps can also occur mistakenly due to the addition of some connectors or other object that creates gaps in the copper. In fact, … [Read more...]
Low EMI, Isolated RS485 µModule Transceiver Meets Stringent IEC 60601-1 Requirements
