A timing controller (TCON) uses over-driving algorithms to improve the response time of liquid crystals (LC). Since this algorithm needs previous frame data, external memory such as double data rate synchronous DRAM (DDR SDRAM) is widely used as a frame buffer. A TTL interface between the TCON and memory is used for read and write operations, generating EMI noise. For reduction of this EMI, three methods are described. The first approach is to reduce the driving current of data I/O buffers. The second is to adopt spread spectrum clock generation (SSCG), and the third is to apply a proposed algorithm which minimizes data transitions. EMI measurement of a 32\" LCD-TV panel shows that these approaches are very effective for reduction of EMI, achieving 20dB reduction at 175MHz.","PeriodicalId":192851,"journal":{"name":"2009 20th International Zurich Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-02-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116528856","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The electrical parameters used in the models were derived from measurements on samples obtained from vehicle components. It is found that the dielectrics investigated have a relatively small impact on the internal field populations due to sources located inside the passenger compartment. Under plane wave illumination from the front, however, the dielectric parts dampen the low frequency resonances, while the glass reduces the internal fields for horizontal polarization. Simulations of lossy materials in a vehicle-like cavity indicate that it may be possible to reduce field levels using readily available materials.","PeriodicalId":192851,"journal":{"name":"2009 20th International Zurich Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-02-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124819165","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The experiment was carried out using a specialized test fixture, which allows precise orientation of the two-wire transmission line with respect to the current probe. It was found that maximum coupling to the balanced transmission line mode occurs when the plane of the primary winding in the probe is parallel to the plane of the two-wire transmission line. The excitation of the balanced mode is tied to an azimuthal variation of the electromagnetic field of the probe. Somewhat unexpectedly, this azimuthal variation has been found to be due at least in part to loss in the magnetic material. This behaviour is qualitatively verified using an electromagnetic simulation in which the dispersion of the ferrite is included.","PeriodicalId":192851,"journal":{"name":"2009 20th International Zurich Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-02-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125271323","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Capacitive coupling is one of the most frequent sources of signal noise. The capacitive coupling is inevitable because of high integration. This paper investigates mechanism of input noises flowing into the op amp and effects of capacitive coupling on the op amp as on-chip interconnection modeling and analytical model of the DC output offset voltage of the OPamp are proposed.

The LCL measured at the outlet (outlet LCL) is often used as a measure of the unbalance despite the negative results. To resolve the issue, we have formulated the transmission line theory of the LCL and the CM current due to the mode conversion at an RUE on the power-line. We have shown that the outlet LCL underestimates the CM current at the RUE due to the CM propagation loss between the outlet and the RUE. We have also shown that the CM current measured at the modem output can be arbitrarily reduced by increasing the CM impedance of the modem without reducing the radiated emission. This is a fatal loophole of the CM current based regulations.","PeriodicalId":192851,"journal":{"name":"2009 20th International Zurich Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-02-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128870036","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
