PCB-Level EMC, part I
Components & Transmission Lines
The fundamental mechanisms of EMC-Problems at PCB-level
are explained.
Instead of establishing primitive rules, which may cause
trouble themselves if not properly understood, the attendee will learn to understand the underlying phenomena.
The key EMC-components are analyzed in depth, with a
focus on their real-live properties. Understanding the capabilities
and shortcomings of capacitors puts their successful
utilization on a sound basis.
The deeper understanding of the principal causes of
EMI forms the basis for the chapters to
come.
The true nature of signal-propagation is explored and targets for the successful design of signallines are defined.
The adverse impact of common design errors in GND topologies
on X-Talk and radiated emission is discussed.
Guidelines for the correct design are given and explained.
All topics are thoroughly and vividly explained, proven solutions are presented. This way, the attendee develops an instinctive „feel“ for possible pitfalls, thus successfully implementing the solutions.
