Adequately decoupling printed-circuit boards (PCBs) at high frequencies has become an increasingly urgent task in the light of increasing clock frequencies with decreasing rise times. Providing sufficient charge at frequencies near and above 1 GHz is extremely difficult with lumped-element capacitors. To further complicate the issue, modern PCB power buses may be analogous to microstrip-patch antennas. Exciting a power bus at board harmonics may result in significant radiated EMI from the bus. Much has been done to improve high-frequency decoupling from a signal-integrity perspective. However, the benefit to EMI is somewhat unclear, because the mechanism by which power-bus noise results in radiated EMI is not well understood. Input impedance of a power bus, transfer impedance across a power bus, and radiated emissions from a PCB are presented herein. The results are discussed to provide characterization of radiated EMI directly from a PCB power bus.","PeriodicalId":312828,"journal":{"name":"1999 IEEE International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatability.

Because common mode noise in a backplane, when coupled into cables attached to the backplane, causes those cables to acts as a monopole antenna, such noise must be minimized. This paper models backplane design techniques to extract common mode noise current from power layers, signal ground layers, and frame ground layers and to drain them to the chassis. A method of gradually lowering the impedance of power layers and signal ground layers with respect to frame ground layers (and frame ground layers with respect to chassis) is explained. This gradual reduction in impedance enables common mode noise in backplane power layers to flow differentially with respect to signal ground layers. Similarly, it allows common mode noise in signal ground layers to drain to frame ground layers and from frame ground layers to chassis. These models were implemented in a large backplane and the resultant measured radiated emissions are presented.","PeriodicalId":312828,"journal":{"name":"1999 IEEE International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatability.
