In this article, Yuriy Shlepnev provides an overview of Simbeor electromagnetic signal integrity software and highlights its new features.

In the final installment of this blog series, Benjamin Dannan, Heidi Barnes, and Steve Sandler continue their discussion of how to calculate the minimum CMRR with a PDN impedance measurement using a 2-port probe, demonstrating how to measure a sub-40 µΩ impedance when using an isolator that has sufficient CMRR using two different VNAs, the Bode 100 and E5061B. Achieving sub-40 µΩ impedance measurements is challenging, but completely realistic with the proper test equipment. 

In just two generations, six different technological revolutions have transformed our economy, our careers, and our quality of life, for better or for worse. Eric Bogatin reflects upon industry progress and explores the potential impact of the latest development in technological innovation, generative AI.

Having determined the amount of CMRR needed for 2-port measurement in the previous installment of this blog, Steve Sandler and  Benjamin Dannan return with a demonstration of how to create a DUT and make a 40 µΩ impedance measurement with the 2-port probe.

In this blog, Steve Sandler and Benjamin Dannan demonstrate how to determine how much CMRR is needed when introducing a ground loop isolator to correct the error in a 2-port measurement. 

In this installment of Practical EMC, Kenneth Wyatt discusses the most common design issues for reducing self-generated EMI and outlines several mitigation techniques that have proved successful for challenging wireless products.

The proliferation of electronic products has made compatibility between devices increasingly important. Products must not interfere with one another and must be designed to be immune to external energy sources. Kenneth Wyatt helps product designers or EMC engineers learn how to characterize this self-generated EMI so that these issues are addressed early when costs and design changes are minimized.

Troubleshooting ESD in a compliance test lab can be time-consuming and expensive. Kenneth Wyatt provides practical advice on how to move the ESD troubleshooting process to your own workbench using simple ESD generators, simulators, and detectors. 

With summer upon us, it’s time to catch up on the webinars we might have missed in the last year. Here is a viewing list of the high value video content I will be reviewing in this column over the summer.
