Abstract

EMI in a workstation server resulting from CPU clock harmonics was investigated. Mechanisms by which noise is coupled off the CPU PCB module were diagnosed from studies and measurements on the CPU PCB alone. A model was then developed. Modifications were made and tested in the fully functional system to support the model.
