EMC design methodologies for PCB layout optimization

Objective

- Perform predictive analysis and screening of EMC problems on PCB, the extraction, analysis and improvement of critical track configuration and the integration with the design methodology.

- Component value and layout optimisation.

- Product control at each development phase. With more stringent international EMC regulations on the horizon and shortened development cycle, MMDE cannot afford re-designs due to EMC problems discovered just prior to volume manufacturing.

- Viability of the prototype tool; HDT will cover the EMC market with a unique solution for conducted and radiated emission, a mature prototype proved on a real industrial problem and a tool customised in accordance with final user requirements.

- Reduction of design iterations; measurement reduction: ie measurement to be taken before manufacture.

- Promote the use of the defined methodology through publication of "application notes" with the case study.

The aim of this Demonstration Project is to show the viability of a prototype tool in performing predictive analysis and screening of EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) problems on PCB; the extraction, analysis and improvement of critical track configuration and the integration with the design methodology in our company. To prevent EMC compliance from posing a problem at product level, every level of the system from the design of the ground structure, to the selection of ICs and decoupling capacitors, to PCB layout must be considered. EMC problems which cannot be located before the prototype is tested, or, which are ascertained by the service technician at the customer site, create prolonged development cycles, excessive efforts during the testing period and decrease customer confidence due to lack of product quality.
