EMC - Electromagnetic Compatibility for PCB Designers: Extended Professional Edition is a practical reference for engineers who need to design electronic hardware with lower emissions, higher immunity, and greater EMC compliance margin.
Modern PCBs combine high-speed digital interfaces, switching power supplies, sensitive analog circuits, RF systems, external cables, and dense multilayer layouts. EMC therefore cannot be treated only as a certification-stage problem. It must be engineered into the product from the beginning.
This extended edition approaches EMC from the PCB designer's perspective, connecting electromagnetic principles with the physical structures that determine real hardware behavior: current loops, return paths, reference planes, stackups, vias, connectors, cables, filters, shields, chassis, and power-distribution networks.
WHAT YOU WILL LEARN- EMC and EMI engineering fundamentals
- Capacitive, inductive, conducted, and radiated coupling
- Differential-mode and common-mode noise
- EMC standards and compliance planning
- Grounding architecture and return-current engineering
- PCB stackup optimization for EMC
- Component placement and functional partitioning
- Low-emission PCB routing
- PCB edge control, stitching vias, and via fences
- Power Distribution Networks and EMC
- Decoupling and high-frequency current loops
- EMI filtering, ferrites, and common-mode chokes
- High-speed digital interfaces and mode conversion
- Switching-converter EMC and high-dv/dt/high-di/dt structures
- Connectors, cables, harnesses, shielding, and chassis
- Analog, mixed-signal, and sensor EMC
- RF and wireless coexistence
- Automotive, industrial, and harsh-environment EMC
- ESD, EFT, surge, and RF immunity
- Spectrum analyzer and near-field debugging
- LISN and conducted-emission testing
- Radiated emissions and pre-compliance testing
- Systematic EMC troubleshooting
The Extended Professional Edition goes beyond individual layout rules by showing how EMC failures develop through complete electromagnetic paths.
Practical case studies examine switching-converter emissions, high-speed digital boards, cable-related common-mode effects, and return-path discontinuities.
The engineering methodology follows:
SOURCE → COUPLING PATH → CURRENT DISTRIBUTION → VICTIM OR ANTENNA → MEASUREMENT → CORRECTION → VERIFICATION
This approach helps engineers understand not only what improves EMC, but why the correction works.
MEASUREMENT AND VERIFICATIONThe book explains practical investigation using spectrum analyzers, near-field probes, current probes, LISNs, conducted-emission measurements, and radiated pre-compliance testing.
Measurements are used to identify physical mechanisms rather than simply produce a PASS/FAIL result.
Dedicated EMC Design Review procedures and a Production-Ready EMC Checklist provide a repeatable workflow for identifying risks before PCB release and volume manufacturing.
WHO THIS BOOK IS FORIdeal for:
- PCB Layout Designers
- Hardware and Electronics Engineers
- EMC/EMI Engineers
- RF and Mixed-Signal Designers
- Test and Validation Engineers
- Technical Leads and Engineering Managers
- Advanced electronics students and professionals
Whether developing industrial, automotive, RF, communication, embedded, instrumentation, or high-speed digital hardware, this book provides a practical methodology for improving EMC performance before problems reach the certification laboratory.
EMC is not achieved by adding a filter at the end of development. It is achieved by controlling electromagnetic current paths from the beginning.
Understand the source. Control the return path. Minimize coup
