EMC-compliant design · Avoid causes instead of fixing them

EMC-compliant layout — the cheapest EMC is the one that doesn't interfere.

Most EMC problems are decided in the layout: grounding, layer stack-up, filter placement, shielding. We bring EMC expertise into circuit and layout development — and test the result in our in-house lab.

Where we start.

Design review

EMC design review of the PCB

Layout, grounding, layer stack-up and critical paths are assessed before manufacturing.

Grounding concept

Grounding, filter & shielding

Concepts that work in the real setup — not just on paper.

Verification

Tested immediately in the lab

Measures are measured throughout development, not merely expected.

Where EMC is decided in the layout.

The most effective EMC measures cost almost nothing in the design — and, if done afterwards, often a re-spin. The decisive factors are: grounding concept & return-current paths (continuous ground planes, short loops), a clean layer stack-up (signal close to reference), filtering & decoupling in the right place (mains filters, interference-suppression capacitors, ferrites) as well as shielding with a correct 360° connection instead of “pigtails”.

We bring these points in as a design review or directly into your circuit/layout development — and then verify the effect in our own fully-anechoic chamber. More in-depth rules in the layout guide.

Frequently asked questions.

Which layout rules are most important for EMC?
Continuous grounding, short return-current paths, a clean layer stack-up and filtering/decoupling in the right place. We give a practical overview in the layout guide; the specific setup is always decisive.
What do you check in an EMC design review?
Grounding concept, layer stack-up, critical signal paths and return currents, filter/shielding locations as well as connector/cable connection. You receive prioritized, actionable recommendations — sorted by effect.
Do you also take on just the design review, without the whole layout?
Yes. A review of the existing PCB is often the fastest lever — we assess EMC-critical points and prioritize changes by effect.

New layout — or a board that interferes?

We bring EMC into the design before test day decides.
