EMC Focus: Power Supplies
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) is always a potential problem with switched-mode power supplies, both AC-DC and DC-DC converters. Modern designs can perform well for emissions and immunity but external connections must still be correct for the best performance. Sometimes, extra filtering is necessary to meet specific application requirements. However, incorrect filter … [Read more...]
EMI Filtering 101: Understanding the Basics
Introduction To start at the very beginning, what is an electrical filter? An electrical filter can be passive, active, analog, or digital. It is a device usually composed of discrete components which can be placed between circuits, networks, or equipment/systems to either emphasize, de-emphasize or control the frequency components of a desired or undesired signal. The term … [Read more...]

An Isotropic Probe for Radiated Susceptibility Measurements from 10kHz to 18GHz and 5V/m to 220V/m
Abstract: Isotropic probes are available for radiated susceptibility test level measurements from 100kHz to 6GHz, 2MHz to 18GHz, 2MHz to 40GHz and 2MHz to 60GHz. For MIL-STD-461 and DO-160 testing a frequency range of 10kHz to 18GHz would be better and a possible solution is presented here. Introduction The probe described in this paper has three separate sections, … [Read more...]
Selection of LC Filters to Ensure HEMP Protection of Electronic Equipment
According to military standards, passive electromagnetic LC filters of HEMP are recommended for use in all kinds of special-purpose electronic equipment. Experience gained by military specialists is usually employed when developing HEMP protection means and measures for civil equipment. Does it make sense to use extremely expensive and bulky HEMP filters for civil equipment? … [Read more...]
