Abstract:  

Because time-to-market and budget factors often drive many of today's high-tech designs, electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) issues often surface at the last moment in the design cycle, potentially delaying product introductions. Very often, simple pre-compliance evaluation and troubleshooting techniques can identify issues early when the cost of implementation is substantially lower and design improvements may be made with less impact on schedules. This seminar covers some of the top EMC problems the speaker has noted through his years as an experienced EMC engineer, plus, a number of simple tools and evaluation techniques useful in characterizing designs at various stages of development and will better prepare products for EMC qualification. As a bonus, a low-cost EMC troubleshooting kit will be demonstrated.

Bio:  Kenneth Wyatt holds degrees in biology and electronic engineering and has worked as an R&D engineer for 10 years at various aerospace firms on projects ranging from DC-DC power converters to microwave systems for shipboard and space systems. For over 20 years, he has worked as an EMC engineer for Hewlett-Packard and Agilent Technologies in Colorado Springs. He is currently a Sr. EMC Engineer for Silent Solutions. A prolific author and presenter, he has written or presented topics including RF amplifier design, RF network analysis software, EMC design of products and use of harmonic comb generators for predicting shielding effectiveness. He has been published in magazine such as RF Design, Test & Measurement World, EMC Design & Test, Electronic Design, Microwave Journal, HP Journal and several others.
