Description Mark I. Montrose, the best selling author of Printed Circuit Board Design Techniques for EMC Compliance, now brings you his newest book,EMC and the Printed Circuit Board. This accessible, new reference work shows how and why RF energy is developed within a printed circuit board and the manner in which propagation occurs. With lucid explanations, this book enables engineers to grasp both the fundamentals of EMC theory and the mitigation process needed to prevent an EMC event. Author Montrose shows the mechanism between both the time and frequency domains to help meet mandatory compliance requirements placed on printed circuit boards. Using real-world examples the book features: clear discussion, without complex mathematical analysis, flux minimization concepts, extensive presentation on capacitor usage for various applications, detailed examination of component characteristics and various grounding methodologies, including implementation techniques. An in-depth study of transmission line theory is presented including a careful look at signal integrity, crosstalk and transmission line termination. Contents 1. EMC Fundamentals 2. EMC Inside the PCB 3. Components and EMC 4. Image Planes 5. Bypassing and Decoupling 6. Transmission Lines 7. Signal Integrity and Crosstalk 8. Trace Termination 9.
