Hi Mat, The book is:
"Introduction to Electromagnetic Compatibility" Author: Clayton R. Paul The copy that I have is copywrite 1992, John Wiley & Sons. There is a whole bunch of library of congress data...in the front cover. I'm not sure what is helpful, except for maybe the ISBN which is, 0-471-54927-4 Chris > -----Original Message----- > From: Aschenberg, Mat [SMTP:matt.aschenb...@echostar.com] > Sent: Tuesday, February 05, 2002 9:33 AM > To: Chris Maxwell; mur...@eel.ufsc.br > Cc: EMC-PSTC Internet Forum > Subject: RE: Conducted noise emission diagnosis device > > What is that title of the Clayton Paul book? > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Chris Maxwell [SMTP:chris.maxw...@nettest.com] > > Sent: Tuesday, February 05, 2002 6:16 AM > > To: mur...@eel.ufsc.br > > Cc: EMC-PSTC Internet Forum > > Subject: RE: Conducted noise emission diagnosis device > > > > > > Hi Muriel, > > > > After I read your reply.
