SPEAKER:   Bill Paschetag, NARTE Certified EMC Engineer  

ABSTRACT:  Bill will present reasons for EMC compliance in the US and internationally with a discussion of the various EMC standards. Some EMC design techniques to control RF emissions from the electronic products and also to control the immunity of the equipment to environmental effects will also be discussed. Also, for people who have not experienced EMC product evaluation, a discussion of some of the terminology used will be presented to take some of the “mystery” out of EMC testing and resulting test reports.

The presentation will include an insight to lesser-known factors of circuitry and circuit design/layout which can and does affect the EMC characteristics of the product.

BIOGRAPHY: Bill Paschetag is a NARTE Certified EMC Engineer with over twenty-five years experience in EMC control and testing.  Also, he is an IEEE Life Senior Member, a chapter officer of the Dallas IEEE/EMC Society from 1998 thru 2008 and the EMC Chapter Chairman from 2005 thru 2007.

 

His technical experience includes 29 years with E-Systems, Garland Division, in EMC design support and test on projects including the NASA Astronaut Maneuvering Unit, Apollo Command Module Environmental Control System and Telescope Mount, A7 Ground Support Equipment, and various communication and data processing systems and facilities.  Also, later in his career at E-Systems, he worked as a digital circuit design engineer, a laser/electro-optic systems engineer, and project manager.

 

After retiring from E-Systems, he was an EMC engineering consultant to TI, Bosch Telecom and SpectraPoint on the 28 GHz LMDS Wideband  Wireless Data Distribution System.  After SpectraPoint ceased operation in 2000, Bill started his EMC consulting company, E. W. Paschetag Consulting, Inc., EMC by Design, which provides EMC design/test support to companies in north Dallas and Collin counties.
