Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) testing is a critical aspect of electronics design and production.

During this webinar hosted by Dassault Systèmes, we’ll see how simulation can identify the root causes of EMC issues and predict how reliably devices perform in their electromagnetic environment.

As a vital step towards ensuring devices are compliant with regulatory standards, it is key to understand and overcome these key challenges during EMC testing:

1. Radiated Emissions: Devices can unintentionally emit electromagnetic energy, interfering with nearby equipment and causing operational disruptions or failures. Common causes include improper PCB layout, poor grounding practices, and unshielded cables or components

2. Conducted Emissions: Noise traveling along power or signal lines can affect other devices connected to the same network or system. This issue is often caused by switching power supplies, insufficient filtering, and ineffective cable management

3. Susceptibility Issues: Devices may be vulnerable to external electromagnetic fields, leading to erratic behaviour, data loss, or device resets. Inadequate shielding is a key contributor to these problems

4. Testing Complexities: EMC testing is rigorous and costly, often involving specialized equipment and facilities. Engineers must navigate evolving standards, design constraints, and the intricacies of testing procedures

Join our webinar to learn how CST Studio can help you overcome these challenges through virtual testing, allowing you to see the invisible and ensure your devices pass EMC tests at the first attempt.
