It’s a fact: our society is experiencing an unprecedented wave of electrification, driven in part by the challenge of decarbonization. And this trend is undeniably growing. In addition to committing to sustainable development, manufacturers are now faced with a major challenge: how to save and optimize the use of electrical current? The key is to […]

In modern compact electronic circuits, there are several components on a confined PCB area, and so, the electromagnetic effects induced from one component may affect the surrounding components. This disturbance is known as Electromagnetic Interference (EMI). The source of the radiation must be identified in PCBs to predict the EMC of electronic circuits. Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is the […]
