What is EMI and Why is Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Important?
EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) refers to the superposition of electromagnetic waves that can cause disturbances in electronic devices. These disturbances can be natural, such as solar radiation or lightning, or man-made, like power lines and radio transmitters.
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) refers to the ability of a device to operate properly without causing excessive interference or being affected by external electromagnetic sources. Ensuring EMC is critical for the reliable and safe operation of electronic equipment.
