As machinery and industrial systems become increasingly dependent on el ectronics\, software\, communications\, and programmable control systems\, electromagnetic resilience must be considered as part of the overall safe ty lifecycle.\n\nThis presentation introduces IEEE Std 1848™-2020 and ex plains how it bridges the disciplines of electromagnetic compatibility (EM C) and functional safety. Rather than introducing an entirely new engineer ing methodology\, IEEE 1848 builds upon the proven techniques and measures already familiar to functional safety practitioners through standards suc h as IEC 61508. The standard identifies which of these established techniq ues are effective against EMI-induced failures and explains how to adapt t hem to improve electromagnetic resilience throughout the system lifecycle. \n\nThe presentation demonstrates why immunity testing alone cannot provid e sufficient confidence for safety-related systems\, illustrates how elect romagnetic disturbances lead to ordinary engineering failures that can be detected and managed using established functional safety techniques\, and shows how electromagnetic resilience must be maintained from concept throu gh decommissioning.\n\nAttendees will gain a practical understanding of ho w IEEE 1848 complements existing functional safety standards and provides a structured framework for managing electromagnetic disturbances as contri butors to safety-related risk.\n\nAgenda: \n7:00 PM Networking and Announc ements\n\n7:15 PM Presentation\n\nVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/ m/570543 LOCATION:Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/570543 ORGANIZER:socci@ieee.org SEQUENCE:5 SUMMARY:EMC and Functional Safety URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/570543 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p>Electromagnetic disturbances are a well-re cognized cause of errors\, malfunctions\, and failures in electronic syste ms\, yet they are often treated as a compliance issue rather than as a fun ctional safety concern.
