EMI-EMC-shielding material-enclosures
This page describes EMI and EMC measurements and provides manufacturers of EMI shielding material,EMC shielding material,emc enclosure or RF shielded enclosure,pcb shielding and more. It covers various EMI/EMC stuff vendors which include Holland Shielding Systems, Laird Technologies, Stockwell Elastomerics, Shielding Solutions Limited, eMEI Group,3M,RAMAYES,Aeroflex,Willtek Communications,Agilent,R & S etc.
EMI stands for Electromagnetic Interference, one device's radiated field if not properly shielded/grounded will
affect functioning of another nearby device.
EMC stands for Electromagnetic Compatibility,one device's conducted electric noise if not controlled will
affect nearby device.
EMI and EMC are very important for any electronic/wireless equipments/devices.
EMI EMC measurements
EMI/EMC Testing include following measurements on the device under test(DUT). Conducted Emission, Radiated Emission, Conducted Immunity, Radiated Immunity. Various standards such as European standards for EMC have been developed to streamline the EMI/EMC certification process.
List of EMC standards followed worldwide can be obtained from following link:

CISPR (International Special Committee for Radio Interference) develops
standards for radiated/conducted EMI(Electromagnetic Interference).
CISPR is part of IEC(International Electrotechnical Commission).
