Proper EMC design for printed circuit boards (PCB) can make a significant difference in the final product's performance in the EMC measurement laboratory. Implementing the proper EMC practices during the design phase of the product is critical and can have little or no impact on the product cost when done correctly.

Unfortunately, EMC design is sometimes considered to be similar to magic or simply a set of rules-of-thumb that should be applied blindly to all designs. This seminar focuses on the basic causes of EMC problems, the latest research results for new design approaches, and how to overcome these problems. This seminar is not just a list of "rules or thumb" but rather it helps the student understand why EMC problems happen, and what can be done to eliminate them.

This seminar's primary focus is to help working engineers understand the causes of EMC problems so this knowledge can be applied to real world product design immediately. Formulas and equations are not required and are minimized throughout the seminar. Understanding the causes of EMC problems will allow engineers to make difficult design trade-off decisions will be the main focus.
