Introduction to Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) II

The primary quantities of interest in EMC problems are conducted emissions [voltage in volts (V), and current in amperes (A)] and radiated emissions [electric field in volts per meter (V/m) and magnetic field in amperes per meter (A/m)]. Associated with these primary quantities are the quantities of power in watts (W) or power density in watts per square meter (W/m²). The numerical range of these quantities can be quite large. 继续阅读“Introduction to Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) II”

Introduction to Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) I

This series is concerned with the ability of these types of electromagnetic emissions to cause interference in electronic devices. This series is also concerned with the design of electronic systems such that interference from or to that system will be minimized. An electronic system that is able to function compatibly with other electronic systems and not produce or be susceptible to interference is said to be electromagnetically compatible with its environment. 继续阅读“Introduction to Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) I”

PCB设计中的过孔

过孔(Via)是多层 PCB 的重要组成部分之一,从作用上看,过孔可分成两类:一是用作各层间的电气连接;二是用作器件的固定或定位。从工艺制程上来说,过孔又分为:盲孔(Blind Via)、埋孔(Buried Via)和通孔(Through Via)。盲孔位于印刷线路板的顶层和底层表面,具有一定深度,用于表层线路和下面的内层线路的连接,孔的深度通常不超过一定的比率(孔径)。埋孔是指位于印刷线路板内层的连接孔,其不会延伸到线路板的表面,上述两类孔都位于线路板的内层,层压前利用通孔成型工艺完成,在过孔形成过程中可能还会重叠做好几个内层。通孔贯穿整个线路板,可用于实现内部互连或作为元件的安装定位孔。文中所述过孔,无特殊说明,均作为通孔考虑。 继续阅读“PCB设计中的过孔”
