Dealing with constraints and resolving any \u201csurprise\u201d issues which arise are attributes of today\u2019s successful design engineers charged with selecting RF\/microwave and mm wave absorbers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Absorbers fulfill a significant role. Radiated emissions from increasingly powerful ICs packed into dense designs or affecting complex equipment make suppressing these disruptive emissions a top challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Still, absorber offerings can be confusing. Decision makers must acquire added knowledge. And significantly, they must think holistically about addressing electromagnetic interference issues emerging across their overall design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You must determine, initially, the type of absorber application needed. Is the desired function to dampen board level cavity resonance? Free space EMI absorption? Or is EMI a near field, component level issue?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
