This article discusses the common-mode and differential-mode radiation from cables and presents the measurement results from the SMPS connecting wires.

We are proud to carry on the tradition of sharing Banana Skins for the purpose of promoting education for EMI/EMC engineers.

Ever tried to measure low-level signals in the presence of noise? Or wanted to capture a measurement isolated from ground, like that of an ungrounded hand-held digital multi-meter, but also needed to capture finer details of the signal, like those captured with an oscilloscope?

Answering the needs of managing EMI in actual use, this article provides hands-on guidance to specialists at the factories and elsewhere on measuring conducted EMI where it matters – in their environment. Anyone who knows how to use an oscilloscope can perform such measurements.

This article discusses additional requirements that designers and safety professionals may want to consider beyond the base standard for their product based on the environment and user exposure.
