EMC-analysis
- define several parameters concerning the PCB and concerning the already placed tracks
- critical tracks are automatially highlighted and checked with respect to their emissions and self interference
- PCB is checked against all EMC design rules whilst designing
- handling and evaluation of the results by Windows tree-view-technique
- calculations implemented: galvanic-, inductive-, capacitive- and radiation coupling
- computation of the coupling factor, wave resistance and maximum track length
- numerous tips for successful EMC-adequate PCB design.
Remark: The EMC tool tends to be an expert system rather than an exact analysis tool. Those tools play in a different league (!)
