Review of Space Applications EMC Requirements
The Contract Having been a long-time manufacturer of oxygen concentrator equipment, when I saw an opportunity to bid on a job to provide an oxygen concentrator system (OCS) for a satellite project I jumped at the chance. The specifications were normal for this type of system and of course electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements were included. Having experience with … [Read more...]
HEMP Protection Strategy for Power System’s Electronic Equipment
Annotation The issue of protecting electronic equipment from the electromagnetic pulse of a high-altitude nuclear explosion is very relevant and important for the power industry. Current knowledge about individual HEMP protection elements, their specifications and application features is very important, but, at the same time, limited to ensure efficient protection of power … [Read more...]
Software-Defined Analog Filters to Modernize and Improve Radio Filters
Filters are some of the most common components found in wireless system designs. They are typically used to block interference from various sources. As limited spectrum resources are allocated to ever increasing number of users, more conflicts between these users arise and more filters are constantly needed. Nowadays, interference is quite common between cellular base stations, … [Read more...]
Cable Discharge Event (CDE)
Abstract Worst-case Cable Discharge Events (CDE) are poorly understood by most of the product developers as the definition of what is about to happen when you plug in a cable into an appliance’s socket. It is NOT the electro-static charge which could be expected on the cable: outer/inner shield(s) + internal wires, while the cable is fully floating prior to the cable … [Read more...]
Conformal Conductive Coating and EMI Shielding
This is a diverse and promising space. In one manifestation, spray-on inks are targeting package-level EMI shielding. Here, they hope to displace sputtering, the incumbent, which benefits from sunk CapEx and lower material consumption costs. They offer low CapEx production in atmospheric conditions and better conformal coverage. Others are developing inkjet printing solutions, … [Read more...]

Classical Shielding Theory vs. Near-Field Measurements
This article addresses the fundamental concepts underlying the classical shielding theory based on Schelkunoff’s equations [1]. In order to assess the applicability of these equations, an understanding of their origin, assumptions made in their derivations, and their limitations, are needed. This tutorial article addresses each of these points. The goal is not to show the … [Read more...]
