Abstract
This paper presents recent trends in system-level EMC investigation and countermeasure technology for radio frequency interference (RFI) influenced by noise generated in high-speed digital system. Recently, as the only digital device can perform various roles, there are a variety of EMI/EMC problems between systems. Especially, RFI is now recognized as a major problem, which occurs by EMI caused by the digital system. Therefore, in this paper, recent trends of RFI investigation from component-level to system-level are introduced and analyzed. Furthermore, in order to solve the RFI problem, recent researches are presented and investigated for the occurrences and suppression methods of common-mode noise which is one of the major noise sources in high-speed digital system. Lastly, this paper suggested future research of system-level EMC analysis and countermeasure technology for RFI problems.
