The authors discuss electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and electromagnetic interference (EMI). After a brief look at the causes of EMI, they describe conductive coupling and electromagnetic radiative coupling. Career opportunities in EMC problem solving are looked at.


Integrating Electromagnetic Compatibility Laboratory Exercises Into Undergraduate Electromagnetics, James L. Drewniak, Todd H. Hubing, Thomas Van Doren, Fei Sha Aug 1995

Integrating Electromagnetic Compatibility Laboratory Exercises Into Undergraduate Electromagnetics, James L. Drewniak, Todd H. Hubing, Thomas Van Doren, Fei Sha

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

A state-of-the art high-frequency laboratory is being developed for pursuing laboratory exercises in EMC. These exercises are being integrated into three undergraduate electromagnetics courses. Two of the courses are a required introductory sequence. The laboratory exercises are designed to stimulate students interest, motivate them to learn concepts, and provide them with exposure to practical EMC applications. Laboratory exercises are also an integral part of an EMC elective course. This paper describes the laboratory development and discusses experiments that can be integrated into these three courses for teaching fundamental electromagnetics as well as EMC.


Diagnosing And Modeling Common-Mode Radiation From Printed Circuit Boards With Attached Cables, James L. Drewniak, Fei Sha, Todd H. Hubing, Thomas Van Doren, J. Shaw Aug 1995

Diagnosing And Modeling Common-Mode Radiation From Printed Circuit Boards With Attached Cables, James L. Drewniak, Fei Sha, Todd H. Hubing, Thomas Van Doren, J. Shaw

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

A procedure for diagnosing and modeling radiation from printed circuit boards with attached cables is presented through a case study of a production model electronic control unit. Procedures for determining EMI antennas, IC sources, and mechanisms by which noise is coupled from the IC source to the antenna are suggested.
