EMC By Your Design A Practical Applications Seminar & Workshop

Two-day seminar before the workshop
Using updates of the latest developments in research, standards, regulations, instrumentation and services, participants will study EMC design techniques and the calculations required to design a product to meet compliance regulations. They will use materials developed by the instructors, Donald L. Sweeney and Roger Swanberg, in conjunction with the textbook Controlling Radiated Emissions by Design, 3rd edition by Michel Mardiguian, edited in part by Donald L. Sweeney and D.L.S. staff – *NEW edition for 2014*.

Workshop
Using an example of a real life product and following typical
design principles, students will:

1. Develop a block diagram.
2. Determine the product’s EMC parameters.
3. Using D.L.S.’s proprietary computer program, (a copy of which you will take home) calculate the probable emissions and immunity of the:
   1. Circuit boards
   2. Power supply
   3. I/O lines
   4. Enclosures
4. Determine if there are EMC concerns.
5. Find cost effective mitigating steps while the product is still on paper.
