Amund, You do not HAVE to be in a chamber to keep working on this. Since there is only one Vcc pin (which processor IS this? - be SURE there is only one Vcc pin; you may have an unfiltered, unconnected Vcc pin or two) you are limited in how many capacitors you can attach to it. This doesn't

Amund, I have encountered similar problems with similarly designed boards. In one interesting case, I was able to get 30 dB reduction in radiated EMI by adding a series resistor to a (fairly short) low-frequency clock line. Due to use of modern devices, its rise and fall times were less than a

Yes, it makes sense. But the goal here is preventing or reducing Vcc drop during the time the microprocessor is switching. You need not only low reactance, but *also* enough capacitance to supply the current needed _while it is switching_. You have not given enough information here to tell if
