“Develop” EMC with Pre-Compliance Testing!
"Develop" EMC with Pre-Compliance Testing! If you're developing new electronic product, you know that it must pass Final EMC Compliance Testing enabling it to go to market. Many companies develop the product testing it for EMC compliance after development. This method means that multiple areas may fail the costly Final EMC Compliance test, requiring "backtracking" through developmental steps to determine the reason(s) for failure and re-test the product repeatedly until it passes. This can be a frustrating proposition, requiring multiple...

Visit Team Shieldex Booth #813 at IEEE International Symposium in Grand Rapids, MI
Visit Team Shieldex at Booth #813! Team shieldex from Bremen and Team shieldex-us will be exhibiting together again at the IEEE International Symposium on Signal Integrity and Power Integrity in Grand Rapids, Michigan from 07/31-08/04. Our companies are very focused on RF Shielding and Electronics Testing. Many of our products work toward ensuring that Electromagnetic Compatibility is achievable throughout the electronics field. Stop by Booth #813 and meet Shawn DeCook, Stefan Harms, and Thomas Santelli to learn about conductive metalized...

RF Shielded Curtains-many Options!
RF Shielded Curtains-many Options! RF Shielded Curtains are known for their work in warehousing and inventory management. They separate a large room into multiple distinct areas, allowing fast and accurate inventories. This certainly isn't the only use for Shielded curtains. They allow adding a foyer, division, or a room to an RF Shielded Enclosure, creating mor workspace. Shielded Curtains are important in telemetry areas of hospitals, keeping the patient's vital signs and medical conditions separate and securely sending them to...

Nothing is “simple” anymore-needs Change!
Nothing is "simple" anymore-needs Change! When I first came to VTT, our manufacturing product line was fairly simple. RF Shielded Enclosures, RF Shielding Curtains, RF Shielding Garments were about it! Today, we find that our customers are always finding new and different needs for our conductive textile products. An RF Shielded enclosure has become a "suite" of rooms with more isolation than ever. Requests for Foyers, removable walls, are routine requests rather than unusual. RF Shielding Curtains are now "arrays...

RF Shielded EMC Testing Enclosures-Size Matters!
RF Shielded EMC Testing Enclosures-Size Matters! Electronic devices come in all sizes. All of the devices require EMC Compliance Testing in order to be marketed. This testing determines whether the device can work effectively in a shared electromagnetic environment. All devices emit RFI radiation and electromagnetic fields. These emissions can adversely affect the function of the other devices. The problem boils down to two terms, emissions or susceptibility. The RF emissions of an electronic device must meet certain applicable standards. ...

Conductive Textiles help make Travelling Safe!
Conductive Textiles help make Travelling Safe! Planes, trains, and automobiles depend on conductive textiles in many ways. They keep the driver or pilot aware of the engagement of safety restraints by the passengers before beginning the trip. If you drive automobiles, you are well aware that there are sensors present in the steering wheel that determine if the driver is in proper position and paying attention to his surroundings. If the car wanders in its lane, sensors notice this and...

RF Shielding creates Device Compatibility!
RF Shielding creates Device Compatibility! Everyone knows some people who are very talented at what they do, but they can't work together! The mere presence of the two of them in the same room ruins the work environment. The same thing is true of electronic components, electronic devices do jobs well. When the components have to work in a shared electromagnetic environment, they have to be compatible. With people, it's their personalities that can make them incompatible, unable to work...

EMC Compliance Testing-what’s the Point?
EMC Compliance Testing-what's the Point? Every electronic device must pass EMC Compliance Testing to make it to the market! The reason for this requirement is to lessen the amount of RFI/ EMI in our environment. More importantly, it is to lessen the RFI and EMI in our environment that adversely affects the function of other devices present in the shared electromagnetic environment. All electronic devices emit RFI/EMI. In general, electromagnetic interference doesn't cause a decrease in function of the devices...
