ATI's Introduction to EMI / EMC course
|
|
Summary:
This three day course is designed for technicians,
operators and engineers who need an understanding of
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)/Electromagnetic
Compatibility (EMC) methodology and concepts. The
course provides a basic working knowledge of the
principles of EMC.
The course will provide real world examples and
case histories. Computer software will be used to
simulate and demonstrate various concepts and help to
bridge the gap between theory and the real world. The
computer software will be made available to the
attendees. One of the computer programs is used to
design interconnecting equipments. This program
demonstrates the impact of various EMI “EMI mitigation
techniques" that are applied. Another computer
program is used to design a shielded enclosure. The
program considers the box material; seams and
gaskets; cooling and viewing apertures; and various
"EMI mitigation techniques" that may be used for
aperture protection.
There are also hardware demonstrations of the
effect of various compromises on the shielding
effectiveness of an enclosure. The compromises that
are demonstrated are seam leakage, and a conductor
penetrating the enclosure. The hardware
demonstrations also include incorporating various "EMI
mitigation techniques" and illustrating their impact.
