Introduction Understanding EMC is all about two important concepts: (1) all currents flow in loops and (2) high frequency signals are propagated as electromagnetic waves in transmission lines. Currents Flow in Loops These two concepts are closely related and coupled to one another. The problem we circuit designers miss is defining the return path back to the source. If you … [Read more...]
