Review of Induced Signal Susceptibility Testing—DO-160 Section 19
The Issue Induced signal susceptibility has been a factor in electronic equipment performance since the dawning of voltage and current. Often referred to as crosstalk, the undesired coupling of one circuit’s signals to another may result in interference that degrades the integrity of either signal. This article examines the testing process prescribed by RTCA DO-160 Section … [Read more...]

EMC Simulation for Automotive Ethernet
Introduction The increasing use of electronics in vehicles introduces new risks of interference and crosstalk between components. OEMs and government regulators impose strict limits on electromagnetic interference (EMI) and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), and redesigning a component that fails to meet these standards can be both expensive and time-consuming. This article … [Read more...]
Advanced Test Equipment Corporation and PMM Finalize New Agreement
Advanced Test Equipment Corporation (ATEC) announced the finalized agreement between ATEC and PMM—making ATEC the new United States and Mexico sole distributor and authorized service center for calibrations and repair of PMM equipment. ATEC is a worldwide leader in test equipment rentals, sales, and calibrations, providing companies with EMC and other equipment that meets all … [Read more...]
Flexibility Key to Trends in EMI Pre-Compliance Debugging
EMI analysis continues to expand as more companies add electronic control and wireless remote capabilities to their products. The need to drive speed and efficiency throughout the design process means these engineers need to conduct EMI pre-compliance testing on the same bench as the debugging embedded and RF signals. Modern instruments often combine debugging and … [Read more...]
EMC Test Equipment Selection and Sizing
Explosive growth in technologies like portable electronics, Internet of Things (IoT) devices, and autonomous vehicles has led to a world full of electromagnetic interference. Efficient EMC testing is more critical than ever, and is dependent on high-quality test equipment. Historically, not a lot of education has been provided on the careful considerations needed for … [Read more...]
L78x-compatible Power Module Meets the Requirements of the 24 V Industrial Voltage Network
A new generation of MagI³C FDSM power modules: The power modules with fixed 3.3 or 5 V output voltages are now also available with an input voltage of 36 V, following on from versions with maximum input voltages of 28 and 42 V. The components in a SIP-3 package represent cost-effective solutions to meet the requirements for the transient capability of a 24 V industrial voltage … [Read more...]
How to Build Your Own EMI Troubleshooting and Pre-Compliance Kit
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and the related electromagnetic interference (EMI) are some of the obstacles that must be overcome before nearly any electronics product can be brought to market—whether it’s an Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) device, a consumer electronics product, or military and aerospace equipment. Products must not interfere with one another … [Read more...]
