EMC at component and PCB level

Martin O'Hara in action at DELTA

Company related one-day training course giving knowledge about designing EMC into your product.

It is all about EMC design

Design EMC into your product by implementing well proven EMC knowledge and techniques from PCB level to component selection.

EMC at component and PCB level

"How can this be done?" you ask. By applying correct design techniques at the component and PCB level, it is possible to minimize product costs and maximize the chances of passing the required EMC compliance testing at the first attempt.

Practical advice

The one-day training course is targeted at electronic and PCB design engineers, who want practical advice on how to design for EMC compliance from the start of a project.

During the training you a talk will be given on good EMC design practice, presented by Mr. Martin O'Hara, who has designed products for environments requiring a strict level of EMC immunity.

Rule of thumb - ready for use

The training is spiced with rules of thumb, which ensure progress in EMC design without necessarily having to use heavy mathematics.

A talk will also be given on common techniques to avoid EMC problems both at the component selection and layout stages and Martin O'Hara will share his tips on embedded software issues which can produce time delay problems if not taken into consideration.

Language

The training course will be in English.
