What is EMC?
A product achieves electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) when it can operate
satisfactorily in its intended environment without generating electromagnetic
interference, while at the same time not being affected by interference from that
environment.
Three factors must be present for electro~magnetic jnterference (EMI) to occur, namely;
 | a source or culprit of electromagnetic energy
|
| a medium or coupling path through which the energy is transmitted
|
| a receptor or victim that suffers adverse effects. |
|
Coupling
Path
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
|
|
The coupling path can be either radiated (a true electromagnetic wave) or conducted (a
current). Consequently, electromagnetic compatibility can be achieved by removing any of
the above mentioned factors.
