EMI- Electro-Magnetic Interference

EMI

Electro-Magnetic Interference must be addressed in all electronic components, with maximum levels mandated by standards and regulations in almost every part of the world. In standard PC design, EMI is controlled at the motherboard level and contained by the chassis or enclosure. The containment of EMI is often referred to as EMC (Electro Magnetic Containment). The following documents outline general containment principles and describe some of the techniques available for containment at chassis seams and vents.
