Electromagnetic Compatibility

Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) refers to the ability of electrical devices to operate without interfering with each other or being disturbed by external electromagnetic fields. In classical electromagnetism, devices generate electromagnetic waves when they operate, which can affect nearby equipment. EMC ensures that products can work together effectively in the same environment, minimizing issues like radio interference or unexpected behavior. This is crucial for safety, reliability, and performance in a wide range of applications, from household electronics to industrial machinery. Proper design and testing for EMC prevent malfunctions and improve overall user experience.
