Session Abstract
The automotive industry is in the midst of an evolutionary cycle, the widespread significance of whch hasn’t been seen since the 50 years following the model introduced by Benz in 1886. The global adoption of electric propulsion and related systems, and increasing levels of advanced driver assistance systems, has promoted the development of new technologies and the birth of new companies. Industrial standards form the backbone of regulatory control, and also provide essential guidance that benefits industry practicioners. This tutorial will address the status, pros, and cons of some of the new and legacy EMC standards for vehicles and ESAs, while also highlighting the potential benefits of new and emerging EMC test techniques. One example of this related to communication signals, is seeing how the measured S-parameters of automotive high-speed cable assemblies (HSCA) can predict immunity to radiated electric fields, while time domain measurements verify signal integrity with eye diagrams.
The design of Electric Vehicles (EVs) introduces significant EMC challenges due to the high-voltage transiets based architecture, which traditional low-voltage methods cannot adequately address. This tutorial will also discuss the unique transients generated by the HV bus and the additional emissions and immunity testing required by ISO 7637-4 and 21498 standards.
Our speakers have extensive experience in automotive EMC/RF/Wireless design and testing and are active technical contributors to international standards committees including IEEE, ISO, SAE, and CISPR.
