Optimizing DC/DC converters for EMI in automotive systems

Electromagnetic interference (EMI) mitigation is a critical step in the design process in most electronic systems, and especially so in the automotive world. In many cases, automotive OEM emissions requirements are more stringent than both national and international standards bodies like the FCC. By their nature, switching regulators are sources of EMI but to keep power supply designs small and efficient, switchers are a critical component. In this video series we will show how you can receive the  benefits of a switching regulator while still meeting challenging EMI requirements. We will address automotive DC/DC converter EMI mitigation at every step of the design process, from part selection to board layout, filter design, and system debugging, to help you pass the CISPR 25 Class-5 standard with your design.
