Designing Aeronautics for EMC
Today’s commercial aircraft can use upward of 6 million parts. Semiconductors, software controls, and high-frequency transmitters heavily affect electromagnetic compatibility. We review filter location, filter pin connectors, capacitors—and when to use insert filters—to pass the strict standards outlined by DO-160G.
A Simple EMI Filter Solution
Under pressure to correct a failed EMC test?
Filtered connectors can help reduce EMI, RFI, and transient signals. But they can be heavy, bulky, and costly. Filter inserts, which slip over connector pins, are a lightweight, fast-install alternative to unwieldy traditional filtered connectors. Learn how filter inserts work and how they can help you pass your next EMC test.
How to Select the Right Type of EMI Filter for Harsh Environment Operation
After days, months, maybe even years of design and production, you hit a failed MIL-461 compliance test. Do you head back to the drawing board and redesign? Not with this selection guide. Find out if a thin, lightweight, and cost-effective EMI filter insert (that can be in your hands in days, not weeks!) might help save your project.
Pre-compliance Validation of EESeal® in Your Application
Why wait until full-fledged EMC qualification testing to find issues in your product design? Learn how conducting a pre-compliance test with an EESeal® can improve your likelihood of passing EMC tests the first time.
How to Turn Your Connector Into a Filter
Electromagnetic interference can affect the performance of electronics, such as car radios during a thunderstorm or an LED strips causing TV picture distortion. Electronics need to perform optimally in an environment that is awash with electromagnetic interference. See how you can improve the performance of electronics by turning your connector into a filter.
Head Into the lab with confidence: MIL-STD-461 and RTCA-DO-160 Preparation for Test
Ace your next round of EMC tests with this “Ready for Test” checklist. You’ll learn how to select an EMC test laboratory, establish your procedures, assess equipment and much more in this comprehensive guide to MIL-STD-461 and RTCA-DO-160 test preparation.
