EMC Immunity Testing: Do You Know Your Failures?
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is the desired condition for electronic devices. In an ideal world, radio-frequency emissions and transient events would not cause failures or disruptions to electronic equipment. But as much as we (and the product manufacturers) wish otherwise, we are not in an ideal world. Radiated emissions, whether intentional from transmitters or … [Read more...]
IoT Systems with mmWave Sensors
One of the most common applications of Internet of Things (IoT) devices is sensing, followed by transmission of raw data back to a base station or server for storage and further analysis. The most common of these sensing tasks seems to be environmental sensing, such as monitoring gas concentrations, temperature, humidity, etc. These devices are so ubiquitous that they … [Read more...]
Navigating Signal Integrity in Chiplet Designs
As the semiconductor industry embraces the chiplet design approach, electrical engineers are witnessing a significant shift in how performance, cost efficiency, and scalability are achieved. While this modular design philosophy offers advantages, it also introduces challenges to signal integrity (SI). For EMI/EMC engineers, the awareness of these signal integrity challenges is … [Read more...]
Some of the Many Stories of Medical EMI
Introduction I have been collecting stories about EMI for a long time, publishing many of them in the ‘Banana Skins’ column of The EMC Journal, www.theemcjournal.com. Some come from official reports, some from anonymous whistleblowers, some are amusing, and some concern deaths and injuries. At the present time, I have published 855 of them, all indexed by application and by … [Read more...]

Essential Performance for Medical Products
Introduction Essential Performance has been a mysterious term ever since its introduction in International Standard IEC 60601-1-2 in 2001. Essential Performance is not unique to IEC 60601-1-2, but originates in the general standard, IEC 60601-1, and is used throughout all the collateral and part 2 standards of the IEC 60601 family of standards for medical electric equipment, … [Read more...]
Static Control Resilient Flooring Qualification Procedures Ensure Space and Defense ESD Compliance Pt. 1
Due to the rapid densification of ESD sensitive devices (ESDS), static control resilient flooring (ESD flooring) has found its way into FAA towers, operating room theatres, MRI/CT scan flooring areas, aircraft terminals, IT data centers, Navy ships, space & defense flight lines, call centers, medical device manufacturing, pharmaceutical delivery and the … [Read more...]
Design for Compliance Essentials
INTRODUCTION While unrealistic to discuss all aspects of product design in a single article, I’ll try to describe the most common design issues I find in the hundreds of client products I’ve had a chance to work on. These issues generally include PC board design, cables, shielding, and filtering. More detailed information may be found in the Reference section below. As … [Read more...]
