How Resonant Structures Affect Power Distribution Networks and Create Emissions
Abstract:
Lots of people have the paradigm that adding capacitors is the “Go-to” solution for all EMC and Power Integrity problems. But mindlessly adding capacitors often adds to your troubles. The reason you might ask? They create new resonance structures, moves the original issue to a new frequency without resolving it, and creates new failures. In reality you end up playing a game of Capacitor Whack-a-Mole.
Capacitors can also hide in plain sight hidden from view and cause mischief. Come see it you can find the capacitor that caused a truck switch matrix to fail a radiated susceptibly testing and why a current mode power supply failed radiated emission at 400 MHz. I’ll give you a hint the solution is EMC Golden Rule number 7.
No, Capacitors are often not the component of choice to resolve EMC and Power Integrity issues. Come join us and learn why.
