Additional Project Technical Details

We have a PCB-mounted drive product that has been released for production and which passed FCC EMC certification however not with much margin. Some customers of this drive product, particularly when using multiple such units on a single PCB, are reporting excessive EMI levels.

The goal of this project is to determine how we can reduce the EMI levels of this product, ideally without a redesign of its constituent boards. However if necessary we will undertake a redesign of one or more of the boards.
