Webinar: EMC Design Principles
Content

Abstract: This webinar is part of a four-part series about EMC with a focus on switched mode power supplies. Although this part is mainly about general measures and how to design a first time pass, this knowledge is basic for understanding the third and the fourth parts, where we finally analyze switched mode power supplies and appropriate mitigations for reduced EMC problems.

The presentation will provide several approaches and design suggestions that can and should be combined. Depending on the state of design, several remedial actions are possible. So, each mitigation has its moment in the design process.

Implementing the right remedial action at the right time can save time and costs otherwise spent on retesting.

The webinar will include a short live session that will reveal that placement can influence the EMI behavior and cause trouble, although everything is done correctly the potential worst case will be shown. In case your mitigations were not enough, and you obtain a first time fail, this part of the presentation gives a short overview of what you can do to improve the EMC performance of your device.

After this presentation, you will have a good overview of the possible approaches for a good design with a focus on EMC
