The article describes very well how you can make sure that the radiation you
Layout creates stays inside the PCB, but this comes with a cost and I'm not
convinced that it is needed if your design is optimized for SI (especially on
backplanes).
I only use edge plating if the customer requires it or if there is need for it
(i.e. I know that there will be radiation inside) but that's very rare. On the
Backplanes I've done without edge plating not a single one failed any EMC test
and that ranges from DC to 100G Ethernet, Video routers, Media Gateways, Base
Stations and many more low and high speed Systems. Daughtercards are a
different story because there a more potential sources of radiation.
I'm not saying that edge plating doesn't work, I'm just saying that to my
knowledge good backplane design doesn't require it.
Just my two cents.

Subject: [SI-LIST] Great article in SI Journal on emissions from backplanes
Hi folks-
If you have not done it yet, you'll want to visit the Signal Integrity
Journal: https://www.signalintegrityjournal.com/
This month, our own Bert Simonovich has a great article about controlling
emissions from the edge of backplanes:
https://www.signalintegrityjournal.com/articles/292-controlling-electromagne
tic-emissions-from-pcb-edges-in-backplanes
You should consider signing up for the newsletter that comes out every 2 weeks
to get a push notification of new articles:
https://www.signalintegrityjournal.com/user/new
And, if you want to spread the word about your own work, consider writing a
piece for the SI J. Here are the writers guidelines:
https://www.signalintegrityjournal.com/submissions
Got an idea for a piece, drop a note to Pat Hindle, contact information at the
end of the writer's guidelines.
And check out some of my columns:
