Overview
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) simulation ensures that electronic devices comply with regulatory standards and perform optimally in their intended environments. As the complexity of electronic systems increases, the importance of EMC simulation grows, allowing engineers to predict and mitigate potential electromagnetic interference (EMI) issues before physical prototypes are built.
It can be challenging for EMC and product design engineers to understand how to use simulation tools effectively. This hands-on session with experts in full-device simulation offers a unique opportunity for engineers to dive into the world of EMC simulation.
By participating in such a session, engineers can gain a deeper understanding of the nuances of EMC simulation. Learn to set up simulations that model their products’ real-world behavior, identify potential EMI issues, and explore design modifications to enhance EMC performance. This proactive approach ensures compliance with regulatory standards and contributes to the final product’s reliability and quality.
