EMI Vs EMC
EMI and EMC are the two terms that are related to each other and used for referring to the regulatory testing of electronic components and consumer goods. However, these two terms are different from each other. All electronic devices or equipment produce electromagnetic radiation. We assume electronic devices as closed systems, however, the electricity flowing through the circuits and wires is never fully contained. The energy can travel through the air as electromagnetic radiation and/or conduct along interconnecting I/O or power cables, typically known as disturbance voltage. Both EMI and EMC testing requirements can become complex with a wide variety of industry and application-specific implications that must be considered before bringing the product in the market. Let’s understand the difference between EMI and EMC. Electromagnetic Interference (or EMI) The interference caused by an electromagnetic disturbance that affects the performance of an electrical/electro...
