Title: A Basic Overview of RF/EMI Filters and Filtered Connectors:

Abstract: Since the first half of the 20th century, the engineering community has grappled

with an ever‐increasing need to manage electromagnetic interference. From the introduction

• f the minimally effective Faraday cage up through today’s cutting edge filters and filtered

connectors, the containment of EMI continues to provide new challenges as systems simultaneously emerge in smaller, faster and more sophisticated variations. Offering an essential overview of the history, cause and effect and regulatory considerations surrounding EMI, the focus is on identifying how to effectively deploy filter technology, including low pass C, LC/CL and Pi filters, grading their performance within specific applications. The presentation concludes by illustrating customer specific examples to simulate identifying the optimum solution for actual EMI issues
