Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
What is Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)?
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is the branch of electrical engineering concerned with the unintentional generation, propagation, and reception of electromagnetic energy, which may cause unwanted effects such as electromagnetic interference (EMI) or physical damage to operational equipment.
EMC addresses three key concerns: Emission (unintended generation of EM energy), Susceptibility / Immunity (the tendency of electrical equipment to malfunction in the presence of unwanted emissions), and the Coupling Mechanism (the path through which interference travels).
Radiated EMI
Interference transmitted wirelessly through space. Typically evaluated across high frequency bands (30 MHz to 10 GHz / FCC guidelines).
Conducted EMI
Unwanted signals propagating directly through power lines, cabling, and PCB ground traces (typically from several kHz to 30 MHz).
Regulatory Standards of EMI
Key national and defense standards governing electromagnetic interference and product immunity:
| Entity / Sector | Applicable Standard & Description |
|---|---|
| USA | FCC Part 15, Subpart J (Unintentional Radiators, Class A / B) |
| Canada | CSA (Canadian Standards Association) |
| Defense / Military | MIL-STD-461: Requirements for the Control of Electromagnetic Interference Characteristics of Subsystems and Equipment |
| Aviation / Aerospace | DO-160: Environmental Conditions and Test Procedures for Airborne Equipment (Section 21/22) |
| Healthcare / Medical | IEC 60601-1-2: Medical electrical equipment — Electromagnetic disturbances, requirements, and tests |
