How to Achieve Automotive EMC Certification Success at the First Pass Webinar

Watch the recording here

Abstract

Automotive systems are becoming more complex with each new technical development that is added to them. This increases the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) challenges for the automotive platform. Passing EMC requirements is critical for keeping projects on schedule and on budget.

Learn how to use simulation for the following:

• Parasitics extraction for:
  • Power modules
  • Busbar
  • Cables
  • PCBs
  • Magnetics
  • Emotor
• IGBT circuit modeling
• EMI filtering solutions
• Conducted emissions
• Radiated Emissions

Speakers:

Flavio Calvano

Lead Application Engineer, Ansys

Flavio Calvano graduated in Electronic Engineering from the University of Naples “Frederico II” with summa cum laude in 2007 and went on to obtain a PhD in Computational Electromagnetism in 2010. He is the author and co-author of numerous articles on electromagnetic simulation, applied to both low and high frequencies. Since 2011 he has held the position of Application Engineer at Ansys Italia working on issues regarding Signal / Power Integrity and Electromagnetic Compatibility.
