The purpose of this application note is to give background information to the reader about the basics of EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility), EMI (Electromagnetic Interference), and how it relates to installations in the real world. As manufacturers across the world continue to develop, innovate, and expand new technologies and products, one important facet of the design and implementation of these new technologies and products is the compliance to EMC regulations and standards for different economies and countries. Each of the standards defines the compliance testing and requirements for product families within specific industries and typically describes how to test those products.
