The standards development and revision process can appear to be a lot like consulting some hallowed oracle with edicts or directives that cannot be questioned.

The regular “Banana Skins” column was published in the EMC Journal, starting in January...

What is an antenna Balun? The term balun is a portmanteau (a blending of two words) of balanced/unbalanced – BAL-UN.

A more thorough “in-between calibration cycle” check of the ESD simulator’s output waveform is something every EMC engineer and technician should consider.

This tutorial article focuses on the skin depth phenomenon in good conductors. We begin with the uniform plane propagation, leading to the wave equations and their solutions in different media.

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) protection of Integrated Circuits (ICs) requires seamless discharge paths and voltage clamping along the course of the discharge, between any pins combinations on the IC.

The Banana Skin columns were compiled by Keith Armstrong, of Cherry Clough Consultants Ltd, from items he found in various publications, and anecdotes and links sent in by the many fans of the column.

EMC Consulting Keith Armstrong graduated in 1972 from Imperial College, London, specializing in electronic design and...

More power costs more money when it comes to broadband power amplifiers, so we typically only specify/buy to meet our current needs rather than what we may need in the future.

In this article the performance of the π and T filters is evaluated and compared to that of the CL and LC filters.
