EMI/EMC and Signal Integrity Boot Camp

This special five day workshop covers the methodology of designing and/or troubleshooting an electronic product to minimize the possibility of electromagnetic interference (EMI), signal integrity (SI) and/or Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) problems. The basics of designing electronic products with EMI, SI and EMC in mind are introduced in a very understandable and entertaining style.

The course is intended to cover the material from courses #243 (Signal Integrity and EMI Fundamentals) and #230 (EMI/EMC Design and Troubleshooting) as a comprehensive program including examples and simple experiments. The course presents the ways in which an electronic system can generate and/or receive EMI, thereby causing failure to meet EMC regulations. A practical approach with many real world examples, techniques, simulation and hardware tools for EMI/SI design will be explained to minimize costs, production and marketing delays by considering key factors and techniques in the design phase.

No prior EMI/SI knowledge is needed but an electrical engineering background (BSEE or equivalent experience) is recommended.
