Ringing is a big player in both SI and EMI, but ringing is easy to fix. I use two formats: edgerate equivalent frequency (SI), and base CW frequency (EMI). Everything is a player in emissions, maybe even what you had for breakfast, or moon phases...there's always something. To me the biggest single emissions producer is the current return path. For intentional radiators (these effects dominate RF design but apply equally to non-RF products), the first thing I do is make sure I have no geometrically induced resonances, and then reduce the current magnitude and path length. -----Original Message----- From: si-list-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:si-list-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Inmyung Song Sent: Friday, December 28, 2001 7:21 PM To: chlee99@xxxxxxxxxxxxx; si-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [SI-LIST] Re: Reflection and EMI I think EMI is dependant on edge rate because the quantity of EMI is in proportion to dV/dt. But I am not sure about whether ringings are significant or not. Anyway, the number of ringing become smaller then the sum of EMI come to small. Good luck. -----Original Message----- From: si-list-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:si-list-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of chlee99@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, December 19, 2001 6:14 PM To: si-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [SI-LIST] Reflection and EMI Hello everyone ! Reflection(or ringing) can be a significant problem in radiated emission. Is this true ? if you have any suggestions, I'd appreciate any comments on this ********************************************** Chunho Lee, SI/EMC Engineer, SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS CO., E-CIM, Management Innovation Team, 416, Maetan-3dong, Paldal-gu, Suwon city, Korea Tel : 82-31-200-3036, Fax: 200-4692 email: chlee99@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ********************************************** ------------------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from si-list: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the Subject field or to administer your membership from a web page, go to: //www.freelists.org/webpage/si-list For help: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'help' in the Subject field List archives are viewable at: //www.freelists.org/archives/si-list or at our remote archives: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/si-list/messages Old (prior to June 6, 2001) list archives are viewable at: http://www.qsl.net/wb6tpu ------------------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from si-list: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the Subject field or to administer your membership from a web page, go to: //www.freelists.org/webpage/si-list For help: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'help' in the Subject field List archives are viewable at: //www.freelists.org/archives/si-list or at our remote archives: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/si-list/messages Old (prior to June 6, 2001) list archives are viewable at: http://www.qsl.net/wb6tpu ------------------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from si-list: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the Subject field or to administer your membership from a web page, go to: //www.freelists.org/webpage/si-list For help: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'help' in the Subject field List archives are viewable at: //www.freelists.org/archives/si-list or at our remote archives: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/si-list/messages Old (prior to June 6, 2001) list archives are viewable at: http://www.qsl.net/wb6tpu
