All Welcome, IEEE members or not See website for more details and map: www.scvemc.org Tuesday, January 13th, 2004 "Time Domain Reflectometry for EMI Analysis and Troubleshooting" - Orin Laney, Senior EMC Engineer, Kaiser Electronics, Inc. Details: - Signal integrity problems are often the root of EMI problems. Time domain reflectometry is a powerful way to view transmission systems in order to spot and diagnose signal integrity issues. The talk will start with TDR theory, then use a live TDR demonstration to illustrate various principles. Examples will include coax, waveguide, microstrip, LAN cable, and perhaps an antenna or two. As time permits, cables and adapters will be accepted from the audience and tested in real-time, preferably ones that you suspect have problems. Remarks concerning the care and handling of microwave rate bit streams and similar challenges will conclude the talk.
