Rohde & Schwarz has announced details for the one-day UK seminar of its Demystifying EMC European tour, to be held at the Leonardo Hotel and Conference Venue, Hinckley Island, Leicestershire, on 21 March 2024. Free to attend, the event runs from 8.30 am to 5.00 pm and provides a day of technical presentations, exhibitions and live demonstrations to explore the capabilities of modern EMC.

Visitors attending the seminar at Hinckley will learn the latest in electromagnetic standards, test techniques and design for compliance. The day will start with a briefing about the latest updates from standards bodies such as CISPR from Mathias Hofer of Rohde & Schwarz. Arturo Mediano of the University of Zaragoza will present the magic of conducted emissions testing and demonstrate how state of the art EMI receivers can be useful for measuring and debugging conducted emissions problems in electronic circuits.

The following session will focus primarily on EMC design and troubleshooting. The ever-popular Lee Hill of Silent Solutions will present a practical demonstration of real-time spectral analysis, with a focus on debugging, followed by Mathias Hofer describing immunity testing for the real world and its implications on amplifier selection. The day will close with a panel discussion, looking into the future for EMC standards and test methodologies as technological progress continues to gather pace over the next decade.

“Now in its 10th year, Demystifying EMC continues to present fresh content each time. Known for its comprehensive coverage, inclusive of multiple markets and industries and product types, it offers great value to everyone in the EMC world,” said Christina Gessner, vice president spectrum & network analyzers, EMC & antenna test at Rohde & Schwarz.

“It is the premier place to be for the exchange of knowledge from established leaders in the industry, including Rohde & Schwarz, Eurofins E&E, Unit 3 Compliance, EMC Partner, Wurth Electronic, Kiwa, Powell Electronics Inc, Element and Horiba Mira, alongside our partner companies TTid and Electro Rent.”
