Characterizing EMI Radiation Physics for Edge- and Broad-Side Coupled Connectors

Abstract

Electromagnetic radiation for a printed circuit board (PCB) midplane connector is studied in this paper. By applying integral-equation (IE) based method and characteristic mode (CM) analysis, the current is split into radiating and non-radiating ones. The radiated power from each part of the structure can be quantified using the radiating current. Therefore, the radiation hot spot can be identified for both edge-side coupled and broad-side coupled connectors. Furthermore, the radiation characteristics for these connectors are compared.
