Featuring
Industry renowned speaker:
Lee Hill
At
The Canton Summit on the
Park
Program Overview:
Preliminary
Agenda
1) Ferrites for EMI
control in PCBs and cable assemblies
This presentation
discusses how to distinguish and
choose ferrites for optimum noise suppression in a particular application.
Specific topics include Q,
bias, resonance, material, and construction.
2) Specialized
measurement techniques Part 1
Lee will bring a
variety of test equipment and components including a spectrum analyzer,
oscilloscope, directional couplers, current probes, LISN, etc to demonstrate the characterization of passive RF components
such as cables, adapters and antennas.
3) How to make a PCB a great noise source and fail
emissions testing
In order to build a noisy but simple PCB for demonstrating
EMI measurements, Lee will discuss common EMC
design mistakes as well as good design practices based on university EMC design research. The PCB he designed will
be analyzed and demonstrated.
4) Specialized
measurement techniques Part 2
Unusual
troubleshooting techniques will be demonstrated using the spectrum analyzer, oscilloscope,
current probes, and near-field probes. Some of the techniques to be discussed are adaptable to
emissions, immunity, and self-interference problem solving

Biography
Lee Hill is Founding Partner
of SILENT, an independent electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
and RF design firm established in 1992 that specializes in design for EMC, EMC
troubleshooting, & RF design and training. Lee received the Master of
Science Degree in Electrical Engineering & Electromagnetics from the
University of Missouri-Rolla, now Missouri University of Science &
Technology (MST).
Lee has over twenty years of
experience in the EMC design and
retrofit of complex electronic systems. He has been teaching short
courses on EMC design and
troubleshooting for fifteen years. Lee consults and teaches worldwide,
and has presented classes in Taiwan, Singapore, Mexico, Norway, Canada, South
Korea, France, and United Kingdom. He is also a regular EMC course instructor
for Oxford University (England), Freescale Semiconductor,
and General Motors University.
Lee holds a US patent for EMI control in portable electronics, and provides
expert witness services for patent litigation.
In 1994 he was appointed to serve a two year term as an IEEE EMC Society Distinguished Lecturer and served as
chair of the DL Program from 1999-2006. Lee is a recent member of the
IEEE EMC Society Board of Directors (2004-2007), and is a member of Technical
Committee TC-10 on Signal Integrity. He currently chairs the EMC Society's Awards Committee.
