A Simple Guide to Antenna Selection
INTRODUCTION Selecting an antenna for testing can sometimes be straightforward but often requires some specific consideration. One aspect in antenna selection is knowing the intended test frequencies and then selecting a matching antenna. Not all antennas are created equal, and when it comes to frequency different antenna styles perform better at some frequencies and … [Read more...]

5 Ways to Eliminate Ground Loops – Part 1
A Brief Introduction Most workers already know that proper grounding is a fundamental safety precaution for all kinds of electrical equipment. However, it’s less well known that while grounding can prevent and resolve many safety and power issues, improper grounding can create problems in data logging, data acquisition, and measurement and control systems. One of the … [Read more...]
Things Not On the Schematic: How the Parasitic Element Affect Results
The engineer had found the use of a capacitor on a specific trace would solve a radiated emissions issue. However, placement on the connector where we put the capacitor during engineering work was not a production solution. So, the capacitor which was moved less than 1 inch away from the connector and turned sideways to fit on the circuit board. However, this degraded the … [Read more...]
EMC Design in Power Electronics Part 2: Noise Coupling Mechanisms
In the previous article of this series, we looked at some of the major noise considerations in different power regulator topologies. Noise from these sources eventually makes its way to other components, and it could interfere with other portions of a system. Depending on the types of components used elsewhere in the system, noise may be innocuous or it may cause a design to … [Read more...]
EMC Design in Power Electronics Part 1: Regulators
INTRODUCTION Modern electronics demand low EMI and EMC conformance, both of which are related to component selection and physical layout in the power supply section of a device. Many more designs are demanding higher power levels alongside high power efficiency, as well as low-noise power supplied to mixed-signal systems. As a result, EMI and EMC challenges are more apparent … [Read more...]
When EMC is of Vital Importance
Santa Rosa, California, March 2023 – Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is a growing concern in medical technology and regulatory standards continue to implement measures to prevent disruption in wireless communication between medical applications, which can have severe consequences for the patient. SCHURTER works diligently to stay abreast of equipment trends and their … [Read more...]
