VTI Vacuum Technologies Inc., a provider of EMI/RFI shielding for electronic device designers, recently partnered with William D. Kimmel, PE of Kimmel Gerke Associates, Ltd., to publish a whitepaper explaining the fundamentals of the EMC shielding process.
“We often have design engineers come to us knowing that they need protection for their plastic enclosures, but they don’t understand how shielding works. This EMI shielding whitepaper explains the key principles of effective shielding,” says Wil Fernandez, president of VTI Vacuum Technologies Inc. The whitepaper is available at http://www.vactecinc.com/emi_whitepaper.html.
“EMC Shielding Simplified” discusses basic physics and concepts to ensure shielding effectiveness, as well as the shielding materials used. In addition, the whitepaper further explains how to make shielding work properly, some typical shielding failures and how to solve those failures.
Since its inception in 1993, VTI has been known for their ability to deliver innovative, high quality EMI, RFI and ESD shielding solutions with on-time delivery for military, medical device, injection molding and other industries. Working with Kimmel Gerke Associates, Ltd. on this whitepaper, VTI solidifies its reputation as an industry leader in providing cost efficient and quality ESD, EMI, RFI shielding.
