EMI shielding with EMI shielding fabric is a technique that creates a barrier that helps in preventing the leakage of strong electromagnetic fields that can cause hindrance to sensitive devices and signals. To isolate the electromagnetic field source, you can install them or can be used as an enclosure for the device that needs protection. For most electronics, electromagnetic interference, or radio frequency interference (RFI) becomes a problem as it decreases the performance of the circuit or even causes it to fail. Electronics deal with small voltages and currents which gets easily be disrupted by an electromagnetic field.
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) is referred to the coupling of signals from one system to another system. In creating an EMI there is the involvement of three components: the source, the path, and the receiver. The source and the receiver are the two systems. The source is usually the external circuit or phenomenon that creates the disturbance which can be naturally occurring or artificial. The receiver, or the victim, is the sensor signal or device in which by the interference its output signal gets distorted. The path is where there is the occurrence of signal coupling which can be through four modes. The nickel copper fabric is quite useful.
Radiated EMI: The propagation of Radiated EMI occurs between the source and the receiver. An electromagnetic wave is emitted by a source that is unintentionally transmitted to a circuit. Conductors such as cables and circuit board traces act as antennae that transmit and receive an external electromagnetic wave.
Magnetic EMI: This is similar to a capacitive coupling that takes place at close distances. Signal transfer is performed by creating a current across another conductor through electromagnetic induction. When the current in the first conductor changes or oscillates this becomes possible.
Conducted EMI: It occurs due to the presence of a conductive path between two circuits. Classification of Conducted EMI is done as common-mode or differential-mode. In the common mode, through a grounding connection, the stray current from the two systems travels in the same direction which then serves as a common return path. Whereas in the differential mode, in opposite directions the unwanted current flows across the two systems through the power supply lines and is independent of the ground.
