What is EMC electromagnetic compatibility technology?

Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) refers to the mutual compatibility of electronic devices in an electromagnetic environment, meaning the ability to operate normally and provide the required performance without mutual interference or influence in this environment.

Different types of electromagnetic signals are generated between electronic devices, such as radiated electromagnetic waves, conducted electromagnetic signals, and voltage, current, and radio wave interference on power lines. These signals can interfere with each other, causing electronic devices to malfunction or affecting their performance. Therefore, EMC refers to the use of appropriate technical measures to ensure that electromagnetic interference and compatibility issues between various electronic devices are reduced to an acceptable level in an electromagnetic environment, thereby ensuring their normal operation.

EMC is crucial for the reliability and performance of modern electronic devices. In practical applications, relevant EMC standards and specifications have been widely adopted to ensure the EMC performance of electronic devices.
