Robert J. Vermillion, CPP/Fellow, RMV Technology Group, LLC, NASA-Ames Research Park, Moffett Field, CA The aerospace community has made … [Read more...]

COTS Alternatives to MIL SPEC Flexible Conduit Systems for EMI/RFI Containment

 

Applications, electrical and physical performance, termination and installation factors of shielded flexible conduits. Linda Sardone, Zero Ground Electronic solutions for military and government equipment and installations are expanding rapidly, and the need for supplemental shielding of cable runs via conduit is moving beyond traditional applications requiring MIL SPEC … [Read more...]

Extending the Concept of Common Mode Noise: Single Mode

 

Electronic switching circuits are used for power conversion, data communication and other applications. According to the theory of Fourier Transform, in these circuits, the periodical change of the current/voltage produces harmonics in a wide frequency spectrum. The resultant currents of these harmonics are called conducted emission (CE), and are categorized classically as … [Read more...]
