This book in its completely revised version, deals with practical concepts of Electromagnetic Compatibility testing and design. Given the scorching pace at which electronic gadgets are evolving, deadlines associated with product design are shrinking rapidly. In such a scenario, the designer obviously has no time to read mathematical theory. Keeping this fact in mind, the book explains only the practical aspects of EMC design without resorting to equations or mathematical derivations whatsoever. It has been designed in such a way that the designer can immediately incorporate EMC measures without worrying about the mathematics behind it. The book starts with EMC fundamentals, speaks about EMC standards and then goes on to explain various EMC test methodologies in detail. In the subsequent chapters, various design measures like filtering, shielding, grounding & bonding, PCB design and cable routing are discussed thoroughly. These measures will enable manufacturers to design a compliant product at the design stage itself thereby saving time and money that would otherwise be required for costly retrofits once the design is frozen.
