Junfeng,

One additional comment on the reason for the 30 Mhz boundary between =
radiated and conducted emissions.=20

Both regulations try to prevent unwanted radiated emissions. But we know =
that EUTs that are much smaller than the wavelength will not radiate =
directly very well, but they will excite the cables and then the cables =
will radiate. Thus, it is sufficient to measure the currents on the =
cables. The 30 MHz has been set on a typical EUT size of maybe 1 m. For =
radiated and conducted immunity the boundary is set at 80 Mhz but maybe =
varied depending on the DUT size.

Hi Junfeng,
Your question is more appropriate for the EMC Discussion Group.  However =

since I wear both the hats, I may be able to give you an answer.

The main difference between Conducted and Radiated emissions is in the=20
frequency range.  Conducted emissions are measured off the power cord of =

your system between 150 kHz and 30 MHz.  Radiated emissions are measured =

from 30 MHz to 1GHz and higher, depending on the highest frequency being =

generated in your system.

The main causes of conducted emissions are the switching power supplies, =

and low frequency digital circuits (which clock below 30 MHz).  The =
modern=20
cores run at hundreds of MHz and even GHz, so emissions caused by =
digital=20
switching will not show up as conducted emissions.  The core switching=20
will cause radiated emissions, which can couple to the outside world=20
through PCB traces, or common-mode coupling from Power and Ground =
planes.

[SI-LIST] Difference between conducted and radiated emission ?






Hi,
  Can anyone tell me the difference between conducted and radiated=20
emission,
especially for digital circuits ?? For instance, inside a large size=20
digital
core what is responsible for the conducted and what is for radiated=20
emission
?
regards,


Junfeng
