Abstract:
Change is the one sure constant there is, and it's certainly true
about worldwide EMC regulatory activities. Maxwell was able to
describe electromagnetism with just four equations, but it takes
thousands of standards to regulate EMC throughout the world, with
dozens more being adopted or modified each year. This presentation
will cover in survey fashion some of the more pertinent EMC standards
that have been recently published for use worldwide, with focus on
changes to be expected when (and if) the new version of the EMC
Directive is adopted in the EU.
The EMC regulators are also going through changes - certification
activities previously the responsibility of governments are also
being performed by the private sector, and governments are changing
their long-established procedures. What these changes entail and who
the players are will be discussed with respect to effort required to
obtain EMC compliance for products in today's marketplace.
