EMC-Trainings by Johan Catrysse, English, Session 1
Event Information
About this Event
The trainings will be held in English and take place in the Blue Guide EMC Lab, however because of the coronavirus, we will host the trainings online as well.
This is the first training session of the year, the second session (same course) takes place on 07/10/21, 21/10/21 and 04/11/21. Subscribe here: https://bit.ly/2YIzikl

Who?
Johan Catrysse is one of the most active European scientists in the field of EMC. He is one of the co-founders of the European EMC conferences and he is an active member of several standardization and education committees.
You can find a more extensive resume below.
When
The trainings will begin at 13:30 and generally end at 17:30. We provide a break of half an hour during the training.
Training program
It is a general introductory course based on practice-oriented research. The handouts of the course are made available as course material.
General (22/04/21 or 07/10/21)
- The electromagnetic spectrum.
- Antennas (wire, loop) and the related electric and magnetic field, frequency and wavelength.
- Spectrum of signals and Fourier Transform (Time/Frequency).
- EMC: conduction and radiation (with a side step to the standards and test methods).
- Common Mode/Differential Mode.
- Introduction to transmission lines.
- Impedance of a wire.
- Principles of equipotential.design
PCB level(06/05/21 or 21/10/21)
- HF behaviour of components, with a focus on filters and decoupling C's.
- Placement of decoupling C’s and filters.
- Ferrites at the PCB level.
- Impedance controlled design at high bit rates.
- Crosstalk.
- Multilayers and the feedthroughs between them.
- Seperation of systems / signals at the PCB level (with corresponding GND layer).
- GND layout and interruption/ bridging of the ground planes.
- Power lines and their filtering (pulsed currents).
- Ground loops and coupled lines in layout.
- Board Level Shielding (BLS)
Systems (20/05/21 or 04/11/21)
- Coupled wires and routing against chassis (mitigation of CM).
- Crosstalk and chassis and routing close to chassis.
- Filters and CM chokes, and correct mounting
- Pigtails and cable routing between compartments.
- Introduction to shielding enclosures, with effects of openings (e.g. display), and seals/gaskets
- Shielding of cables and continuity at the termination connectors.
- GND noise due to wrong grounding(s).
- Cable trays and the associated specs versus cables.
- Separation of systems and signals.
- Inverters and motors, and the bearing current.
- Pulsating currents from batteries.
- CAN bus as an example.
- ESD and touchscreens.
