Ensuring EMC compliance
01 March, 2022Every developer of an electrical or electronic device is faced with the same problem: the device must comply with international electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) guidelines.
The ideal filter in just 6 steps
01 July, 2020The causes of EMC interference can be numerous; therefore, standard filters are not always the simplest and best solution.
Würth Elektronik WE-CLFS EMC Line Filters
04 May, 2020Würth Elektronik has released its complete WE-CLFS EMC Line Filters, featuring all the components required for an EMC filter inside a welded enclosure for good shielding.
EMC compliance standards are changing
03 March, 2017Years ago, manufacturers made AV equipment and others made information technology equipment. Crossovers between the two categories were rare.
E-T-A REX12-T electronic circuit protector
25 October, 2016The E-T-A REX12-T electronic circuit protector has a protective element for mechanical engineering and process control.
Mini-Circuits CLM-83-2W+ ultra-wide frequency power limiter
11 November, 2014Mini-Circuits' CLM-83-2W+ is an RoHS-compliant limiter which protects against ESD and input RF power surges, up to 1.6 W, across a wide frequency range. The rugged limiters, only 0.12 x 0.12 x 0.045″, provide protection for low-noise amplifiers and other sensitive equipment, especially in hostile environments where unwanted signals prevail.
PMM L1-150M multistandard LISN
20 January, 2014The PMM L1-150M multistandard LISN provides line impedance stabilisation networks for conducted RFI in the range of 10 kHz to 400 MHz. This is said to make EMC testing simpler and less costly.
Schaffner Modula-6100 Immunity Test System
26 November, 2013The Schaffner Modula-6100 Immunity Test System, available to rent from TechRentals, is a multifunction generator that enables investigation of electromagnetic field interference effects and immunity testing. The unit conforms to international, national and in-house standards, including IEC/EN standards.
Reliable power supplies and commercially viable circuit design
11 February, 2013Faults in production are difficult to eliminate in their entirety - for example, short circuits may appear in the wiring or individual consumers may experience malfunctions. Ideally, however, the machine or plant should be able to continue operation without interruption. The fuse protection on the secondary side of the 24 V power supply plays an important role in this.
Throwing some light on electromagnetic fields
17 January, 2012 by George Stavrinou, Westek ElectronicsTesting the effect of electromagnetic fields on humans to find out if CFLs are safe to use.
Vishay LLP2510 four-line ESD-protection array
15 December, 2011 byVishay has released a 4-line ESD-protection array in the ultra-compact LLP2510 package. Featuring a compact 2.5 mm x 1.0 mm footprint and ultra-low profile of 0.55 mm, the VBUS54ED-FBL offers low capacitance and leakage current for protecting high-speed data lines against transient voltage signals.
Making PCBs EMC compliant
09 November, 2011 by George Stavrinou, Westek ElectronicsPCB board design is often governed by established cost aspects. If a designer comes up with an EMC-proof design (in theory difficult, if not impossible to achieve without actually testing it as a product), they are likely to hear that it’s going to be expensive to lay it out according to their wishes.
EM Test N series EMC immunity test simulator range
19 October, 2011 byThe compact ‘N’ series multifunctional EMC immunity test simulators from EM Test, covers a wide range of 32 common EMC immunity test standards.
Agilent N9038A MXE EMI receiver
