Mr. Steve Ferguson, iNCE, VP of Washington Labs
Course Description
Development in our fast-paced world is difficult enough without having to stare down EMI demons. Exorcise those demons before they get into your design. Prudent printed circuit board layout pays dividends at test-time. Good layout, proper component selection and good planning will reduce surprises at test-time.
EMC design is ever more critical as designs must comply with domestic and international standards. FCC, CISPR, IEC, CE Marking, CCC all require conformance to EMC specifications. In the world of global competitiveness, missing the mark may mean missing the market.
Find out how to do more from the experts at Würth Electronics and Washington Labs. Join us for this informative and interactive design session, followed by laboratory demonstrations of practical test and measurement methods.
Objectives
Learn techniques to reduce trace radiation, crosstalk, power supply emissions, proper decoupling and filtering. Test and compliance requirements for international markets.
Who Should Attend
Engineers involved in product development, EMC and Compliance Engineers
