Webcast addresses EMI for analogue ICs

Texas Instruments and Arrow Electronics will present a live Analog eLab webcast for designers entitled "EMI/RFI as seen by analogue ICs" on Wednesday 6th December 2006 at 1700 GMT.

Texas Instruments and Arrow Electronics will present a live Analog eLab webcast for designers entitled "EMI/RFI as seen by analogue ICs" on Wednesday 6th December 2006 at 1700 GMT.

During the online discussion, TI analogue expert Bill Klein, PE, and eLab panellists Carl Wolfe of TI and Peter Goad of Arrow Electronics will talk about types of interference that can impact analogue circuit performance.

In addition, they will discuss test techniques for measuring circuit sensitivity and useful design modifications for eliminating interference.

Engineers are invited to register for the one-hour session via the TI website.

Because all analogue circuits can be sensitive to EMI and RFI, it is important for engineers to be aware of the effect it can have on their designs.

Understanding how this energy interacts with analogue ICs helps designers determine when the interference impacts circuit performance and a correction is required.

Webcast panellists will discuss the physics of EMI and the pitfalls encountered in achieving successful designs.

They will provide information on techniques to use for measuring how effective a design change can be in modifying the impact of EMI energy.

During the lab segments, Klein and Wolfe will use complex test equipment and demonstrate how it is possible to measure the exact sensitivity in analogue circuits.

Using simple test techniques, they will show how to get a relative indication of the circuit sensitivity to EMI.
