Proper RFI Management is Crucial, Wireless, the Internet of Things, and 5G depend on It!
Proper RFI Management is Crucial, Wireless, the Internet of Things (IOT) and 5G depend on it!
Proper RFI Management is Crucial, Wireless, the IoT, and 5G depend on it. All three of the above-mentioned systems operate in an RFI filled environment. Due to the increase of the number of devices, there is more RFI in our environment than ever before. Every electronic device emits RFI, the trick is to control it. Think of the environment as an office full workers. As...

RF Shielded Testing Enclosures, We have the right one for You!
RF Shielded Testing Enclosures-what are they?
RF Shielded EMC Testing Enclosures are based on the theory of the "Faraday Cage", pioneered by Michael Faraday in 1836. A Faraday Cage is made of a conductive metal mesh or solid conductive metal plates that will not allow external electric fields to enter the area that the cage encloses. Our RF Shielded EMC Testing Enclosures are made of metalized conductive textiles, making them easy to assemble, lightweight and portable.RF Shielded Testing Enclosures-what are...

RF Emissions and RF Susceptibility, EMC Test Devices Early and Often in Development!
RF Emissions and RF Susceptibility, EMC test devices early and often in development! RF Emissions- every electronic device emits RF waves during function. Some of these RF waves are acceptable in the environment. Some of them can adversely affect the function of other nearby devices. The RF Emissions should be checked early and often during development. This process prevents the need to change the device design completely late in the game. RF Susceptibility- If RF waves in the area decrease...

EMC Test Enclosures make Pre-Compliance Testing Easy!
EMC Test Enclosures make Pre-Compliance testing easy! Manufacturers of electronic components know the importance of pre-compliance testing. Their components must function smoothly together with many other components simultaneously. The emission testing checks for RF emissions from the component. There are strict standards for the level of RF emissions that components are allowed to produce. Combine this with susceptibility testing, which is done to confirm that the component will be able function flawlessly in the presence of ambient RF levels that...

The Reverberation Chamber is a very useful Tool in Automotive Testing!
The Reverberation Chamber is a very useful Tool in Automotive Testing!
The Reverberation Chamber is a very useful tool in Automotive Testing. This is especially true in the ElectroMagnetic Compatibility (EMC) area. Automotive Industry is constantly increasing its EMC standards. The tests in the Automotive Industry are the ISO 114 52-2, CISPR-25, and the EN 61000-4-21 tests. United States based vehicle manufacturers market their vehicles worldwide, so these standards are always incorporated in their basic company standards. These standards are increasing in...

Portable RF Shielded Enclosures are Excellent Testing Options!
Portable RF Shielded Enclosures are Excellent EMC Testing Options! These Enclosures are used in Pre-Compliance testing of new electronic equipment in the developmental stage. They provide the perfect ambient-free environment necessary for this type of testing due to the "Faraday Cage Effect". The metalized conductive textiles used in making these enclosures block unwanted electromagnetic fields and waves inside of the enclosure. The Device Under Testing (DUT) can then be operated in a "clean RF environment" to determine if normal operation...

What are Sensors, and what do they do for us in Automobiles?
What is a Sensor?
A sensor is a device that measures a physical property and records, indicates, or otherwise responds to it. Sensors seem to be present everywhere these days and their numbers are ever increasing. They monitor many and varied complex systems, looking for abnormalities. The automotive industry depends heavily upon sensors, there are many present in automobiles, where people spend lots of their time.What do Sensors in Automobiles tell Us?
Sensors in the Automobile cabin are essentially Human Machine Interface...

Compliance Test Tension? An RF Shielded Enclosure by V Technical Textiles, Inc. can Ease the Stress!
We all know that final EMI Compliance Testing can be a tense time. Time has been invested in development, design, prototyping, and now it is time to find out if your device is compliant with applicable ElectroMagnetic Compliance (EMC) standards. You drive the three hour trip to the testing site on your appointed day. Of course, the line has formed and "they're running a little behind today", so you wait for your turn. You hand your device over to the...
