Swindon. http://www.sciencemuseum.org.uk/wroughton/ Title: "PCB level EMC" plus a Special Presentation on "EMC History". We have split our forthcoming event into two themes. The setting of the Science Museum site prompted the inclusion of the EMC history content, intended to be a recognition of the contribution of this discipline to electrical and electronic technology. This session could also be considered a precursor to the conference on the History of Electronics, which the IEEE History Committee is sponsoring at Bletchley Park in June. Agenda. 09:30 Arrival & Registration 09:55 Welcome, Graham Mays.. 10:00 - 10:40 General issues of PCB design and design tools.

Tim Jarvis is an independent consultant. His company RadioCAD (www.radiocad.com) assists clients in designing electronic products for compliance with European directives and worldwide standards. Tim has worked in the electronics industry since 1983 and specialises in RF design and EMC. Tony Maddocks is the Chief Consultant in the Electromagnetics Group at ERA. For more than 20 years he was responsible for the operation of a multi-client research project investigating the relationship between EMC performance and equipment design. He also has extensive experience in assisting customers in achieving compliance through both suppression and design. Martin Ganley spent 5 years at York as a research assistant looking at PCB level EMC and software tools for aiding design, and completed a doctorate in that subject. He has been at ERA for 5 years and has been involved in many PCB design projects.
