Good day.. I would like to invite you to our 13TH Annual Chicago Chapter IEEE EMC MiniSymposium, to be held at the Itasca Country Club, Itasca, Il on Tuesday, May 10.
This MiniSymposium is not only for EMC engineers and technicians but.. for Electrical and Mechanical Engineers that develop and design equipment as well. Note there are actually two different presentations that Lee HIll will be doing, listed below. Knowing that some of the attendees may not have a high level of EMC experience, I have elected this year to start off my MiniSymposium off with a special session called.... "Fundamentals of EMC" where we will have Tom Braxton (Shure, Inc.) speak to all the terms and specifications that we use in the daily EMC arena. This is must attend for new engineers! Please forward this email to anyone that you feel will benefit from our annual event. (If possible, please print out and post on your board.) I look forward to see you at this annual event. Frank Krozel 2011 IEEE EMC MiniSymposium Chairman fr...@electronicinstrument.com When..... Tuesday May 10, 2011 8am-5:00pm Where.... Itasca Country Club, Itasca, IL Topic.... Essential EMC Measurement Tools Discussion of spectrum analyzers, test receivers, current probes, voltage probes, near field probes, including basic theory of operation of current probes for injection and monitoring of EMI. Includes demonstrations of working hardware. and..... Shielding of Electronic Products, Enclosures and Cables. Common pitfalls and good practices. Includes demonstrations and working hardware. Speaker...... Lee Hill - Silent Lee Hill is Founding Partner of SILENT, an independent electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and RF design firm established in 1992 that specializes in design for EMC and RF design, troubleshooting, and training services to commercial and industrial manufacturers with global distribution in the computer, consumer, network and telecommunications, industrial process control, automotive, medical and scientific instruments, military and aerospace industries.

Previously Lee was Principal EMC and Systems Engineer at Digital Equipment Corporation’s Workstation Systems Engineering Group in Palo Alto , California . Lee received the Master of Science Degree in Electrical Engineering & Electromagnetics with highest honors from the University of Missouri-Rolla, (now Missouri University of Science and Technology) and the Bachelor of Science Degree in Electrical Engineering from the Rochester Institute of Technology. Mr. Hill was awarded the 1993 IEEE EMC Society President’s Memorial Scholarship and the 1994 Missouri Collegiate Entrepreneur Award. Lee has over twenty-five years of experience in the EMC design and retrofit of complex electronic systems. He has been teaching short courses on EMC design and troubleshooting for fifteen years. Lee consults and teaches worldwide, and has presented classes in Taiwan, Singapore, Mexico, Norway, Canada, South Korea, France, and United Kingdom. He is also a regular EMC course instructor forOxford University ( England ), and General Motors University. He has completed a three-year term on the Editorial Review Board of Printed Circuit Design Magazine and served as an EMC instructor for HP and Agilent. Lee holds a US patent for EMI control in portable electronics, and provides expert witness services for patent litigation. Lee is a recent member of the Society’s Board of Directors (2004-2007), and is past member of the IEEE EMC Society’s Awards Committee. In 1994, Lee was appointed to serve a two year term as an IEEE EMC Society Distinguished Lecturer (DL), and from 1999-2006 he served as chair of the DL program. In 2003 he served as Co-Technical Chair of the IEEE Symposium on EMC in Boston ,Massachusetts . He is a past Vice-Chair of the Central New England Chapter of the IEEE EMC Society. In the past seven years he has been a frequent featured speaker at IEEE EMC Society fundraising events in cities throughout the US including Seattle , Portland ,Chicago , Milwaukee , Dallas/Fort Worth and Detroit . He has also provided technical presentations to Society chapters in Los Angeles ,San Diego , Santa Clara , Boston , Austin , Colorado Springs, Pittsburgh , and Orange County , CA . In 1999 Lee received a Certificate of Appreciation from the EMC Society for significant contributions to education ! through his annual participation in the Demonstrations and Experiments portion of annual IEEE EMC Symposia. Lee was a member of the original IEEE P1180 ad-hoc committee on low frequency magnetic field measurement for video display terminals. In 2008 Lee wrote a guest column for Howard Johnson in Electronic Design Magazine. Additional information...... http://www.emcchicago.org/sectfiles/events.htm We hope to see you there!
