Hello All, I have been asked by one of our design engineers if I can measure the RF signature on the 3v plane on one of our PCB designs. The purpose of this is to compare it to proposed changes for cost reduction, ie removal of bypass caps. I would assume I need some sort of CDN but I have no designs for this application. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can safely probe a 3v DC power rail with an EMC analyser (HP8591E)? Regards, Cameron O'Phee. EMC & Safety Precompliance. Aristocrat Technologies Australia.
