FAA Backs Off of Pennsylvania Wind Farm EMI Claims
A portion of the 30 wind turbines at a planned wind farm in southwestern Pennsylvania would not pose an aviation hazard as initially feared, the Federal Aviation Administration said. Last year, the FAA said 15 of the 404-foot-tall turbines planned for Shaffer Mountain in Somerset County were too high to be safe or could create electromagnetic interference in nearby air … [Read more...]
Amplifier Manufacturer Joins Electronic Technologies Group
dB Control, a manufacturer of high-power microwave amplifiers, radar transmitters and power supplies, recently joined the Electronic Technologies Group of HEICO Corporation. dB Control’s CEO, executive management staff and current workforce will remain in their positions. Terms of the acquisition were not disclosed. Last month, the company received a $13.2 million five-year … [Read more...]
Laboratory Helps Bolster Kansas Aerospace Industry
As the aerospace industry converts to composite materials and develops new tools, laboratories like the Wichita, Kan.-based National Institute for Aviation Research (NIAR) have become critical in testing such things as the top-secret electronics and electronics-shielding products for the military and others. Roy Wenzel of The Wichita Eagle looks at NIAR’s effect on the industry … [Read more...]
Henry Ott’s EMC Classic, Now Updated
“Electromagnetic Compatibility Engineering” is a completely revised, expanded, and updated version of Henry Ott's popular book “Noise Reduction Techniques in Electronic Systems.” It reflects the most recent developments in the field of electromagnetic compatibility and noise reduction, and their practical applications to the design of analog and digital circuits in computer, … [Read more...]
Electromagnetic Pulse Cannon Has Military’s Attention
A Canadian company will soon demonstrate an electromagnetic pulse cannon that is capable of stopping a car at a distance of 656 feet (200 meters). Flight International uncovered the story while following up on a recent U.S. Air Force request for an aircraft weapon capable of “disabling moving ground vehicles while minimizing harm to occupants.” Eureka Aerospace, which is being … [Read more...]
200°C Filtered Wire and Cable
The new 200°C wire and cable from Tyco are higher temperature additions to the ElectroLoss Filterline family of EMI-filtering wires and cables for defense and aerospace applications. Effective against conducted EMI, ElectroLoss FilterLine wire and cable systems attenuate high-frequency EMI and allow low-frequency signals to pass with minimum loss. The wire and cables function … [Read more...]
$1.49M Contract to Develop Composite EMI Shielding
Angstron Materials Inc., has been awarded $1.494 million to develop processes for mass-producing chemically modified nano graphene platelets (NGPs), which are purported to have a nearly limitless number of applications in the aerospace, energy, defense, automotive and telecommunications markets. NGPs promise lightweight structural components as well as electromagnetic … [Read more...]

Aircraft, Satellites Could Use Nanotubes for EMI Shielding
Aerospace and aircraft companies as well as the military have been challenged to find ways of effectively shielding sensitive electronic equipment, such as radar and radios from electromagnetic interference without adding a lot of weight to aircraft and satellites (the more massive they are, the more fuel they need to stay in the air or achieve orbit, respectively). Whereas EMI … [Read more...]
