EMI/RFI Webcast Now Available On-Demand: The recent Webcast “EMI/RFI as Seen by Analog ICs” is now available for on-demand viewing. All analog circuits can be sensitive to ElectroMagnetic Interference (EMI). Understanding how this energy interacts with analog ICs can help identify EMI’s impact on circuit performance and provide insight for developing techniques to measure how well design changes modify and minimize the impact of the EMI energy. With simple test techniques, it is possible to get a relative indication of circuit sensitivity to EMI.

ECN’s Design Network Features Design Information by TI Engineers: ECN’s Design Network Archives contain three audio/visual presentations for designers working in the industrial end-equipment space. Jinrong Qian, applications manager at TI, walks the designer through the battery selection process for portable power applications. Bonnie Baker, senior applications engineer at TI, provides two presentations covering analog filtering techniques: 1) How do you know if you need an analog filter in your circuit; and, 2) How to get the optimal performance out of an analog filter and better overall noise performance between an operational amplifier and data converter.
