Kenneth Wyatt

Kenneth Wyatt, Sr. EMC Engineer, Wyatt Technical Services LLC, holds degrees in biology and electronic engineering and has worked as a senior EMC engineer for Hewlett-Packard and Agilent Technologies for 21 years. He also worked as a product development engineer for 10 years at various aerospace firms on projects ranging from DC-DC power converters to RF and microwave systems for shipboard and space systems. A prolific author and presenter, he has written or presented topics including RF amplifier design, RF network analysis software, EMC design of products and use of harmonic comb generators for predicting shielding effectiveness. He has been published in magazines such as RF Design, Test & Measurement World, Electronic Design, Microwave Journal, Interference Technology, HP Journal, and several others. Kenneth is a senior member of the IEEE and a long time member of the EMC Society where he serves as their official photographer. He is also a member of the dB Society and is a licensed amateur radio operator. His comprehensive yet practical EMC design, measurement, and troubleshooting seminars have been presented across the U.S., Europe, and Asia.

Book Review: Power Integrity by Steven Sandler

I’ve often wondered why some harmonic emissions were unrelated to obvious clock oscillators, system clock frequencies, or even SMPS frequencies. The answer is likely related to the stability of power supplies (... Read More...

Troubleshooting Radiated Emissions: Three Case Studies

Radiated emissions (RE) are often the number-one cause of compliance failures for most electronic products. This article describes simple troubleshooting steps and tools to isolate most RE issues.
