Electromagnetic Interference and Compatibility

Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) refers to disturbances caused by electromagnetic fields that can disrupt the functioning of electronic devices and systems, like radios or computers. On the other hand, Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) ensures that devices can operate effectively in their electromagnetic environment without causing or experiencing interference. Essentially, it's about designing electronics that can coexist and function properly alongside each other, minimizing unwanted disruptions while still performing their intended tasks. Together, EMI and EMC are crucial for reliable technology in our increasingly electronic world.
