You might want to track dowm Chuck Green of the greater San Jose area, formerly with IMI who was their EMI Engineer. He might know the survivors of these products. Hans

It was written by 3 authors from "Lexmark International, Inc.", Lexington, KY. So, if you can track them down you might get a lead. In the article they have a picture of an IMI chip, BTW. I have looked at emissions from a variety of personal computers with a spectrum analyzer over the last few years and they all seem to have the characteristic, wide-band, flat-top waveform that "SSCGs" produce. So, I would guess that IMI isn't the only one that makes these. I, for one, would also be very interested in having the names of some vendors and information on SSCG effectiveness.
