Hi Bob, Is it broadband noise? Maybe a DC-DC converter on the board? Or do you have a peak at 62.5MHz? The 8B/10B encoding gets you to 125MB/s, and an 0101 idle pattern effectively gives you 62.5MHz. Best regards, Dave Bob Patel wrote: Hi! I had a question regarding meeting EMI on my board for

Based on little info you have provided, I am making the following assumptions. 1) The noise is broadband noise coming from MLT3 signal (by fast you mean 100 Mbps?). 2) It is not from the power supplly, which can also radiate similarly looking noise in this portion of the spectrum. You can

Hi! I had a question regarding meeting EMI on my board for CISPR. I have a Fast Ethernet card and the 125MHz Fast Ehternet fails the CISPR in the 30Mhz to 100Mhz limit. In the layout care has been taken to isolate the chassis or quiet ground from Digital ground by isolating the ground from the
