| The modern world’s needs of electric and electronic devices and systems lead to a continuously electromagnetic interferences growing in ways that were hard to predict few decades ago, a serious reason to consider the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) regulations a top priority for the developers and the end-users as well. An important segment of these products is represented by integrated systems, and not only the large scale ones, as a natural consequence of the increased equipments interoperability and versatility. The integrated systems developers are facing many issues regarding EMC products compliance, although the individual components of their systems are fully or partially compliant with the EMC standards and regulations. Practical solution to identify and solve these problems consists in preliminary precompliance tests deployed in specialized EMC laboratories. Unlike the classic EMC tests, the specialized pre-compliance probes enable the developers to improve their products, according to the provided feedback, and to minimize their efforts to reach that goal. Our specialized EMC laboratory has been involved in many testing and evaluation projects for different types of electric and electronic systems compliance characterization. The authors participated in experimentation activities as well as software simulation sfor EMI protection solutions design and realization. The accumlated experience allow us to investigate the associated phenomena related to EMC problems and to find solutions for these inconveniences |
