I have been writing and recording again, this time on finding "hot" grounds in a system.
Abstract: An area of a circuit board or system that has significant noise present on ground can often drive common mode currents on cables or other structures causing excessive emissions. A simple technique is described to identify areas of a circuit board or system that are at risk for emissions problems. The link to the article is the picture of the experimental test setup at the bottom of the home page at http://emcesd.com . Or just click on this link: http://emcesd.com/tt2006/tt080106.htm There is also an audio discussion of this article on my podcast site: http://emcesd-podcast.com where the direct link to the audio file is: http://emcesd-podcast.com/2006/august/2006-0801.mp3 Can't download mp3 files? Download the following instead: http://emcesd-podcast.com/2006/august/2006-0801.dcs After download, change the extension from .dcs to .mp3 and the file will then be able to play on most computers. Since the last HFNews there have been two new podcasts posted. Enjoy! Doug -- ___ _ Doug Smith \ / ) P.O.
