EMC book

Some time ago I remember a comment on "The ugly Yellow book" when 
referring to EMC texts.

I have recently got hold of a book "EMC for product designers - Meeting 
the European directive" by Tim Williams. It appears to be pretty good 
but it has a yellow cover. Not that the color of the cover is anything 
to go by but it did have me asking the question what "the Ugly Yellow 
book" on EMC actually was?

Any advice or observations or recommendations appreciated...

Thanks,
Bryan Ackerly.

Re: Ferrite Bead for power decoupling systems

Hi Alvaro,
your questions are too generic to answer. there are numerous texts written
on these topics. May be you can start reading with Istvan
Novak<http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=ntt_athr_dp_sr_1?_encoding=UTF8&sort=relevancerank&search-alias=books&field-author=Istvan%20Novak>'s
web page : http://www.electrical-integrity.com/
There are few good application notes regarding PDN in Xilinx web page also.
Start reading!
Best of luck!!!
Regards,
Ramesh

Re: EMC book

Brian,

That is not the "Ugly Yellow Book"  The ugly yellow book is more reddish 
brown.

Hi 
I am using USB type b v2 in full speed using  microcontroller pic18f4550  I will be designing double sided pcb I
have following query 

1 are there any layout guidelines for USB v2 full speed ? 
2 will the USB trace d+ d- needs to be impedance controlled ?
3 if yes then what should be the impedance for double sided pcb and how to calculate it. ?

I read about guidelines for high speed but not sure if that's same for full speed ?
Thanks for the help...

Best regard

Re: EMC book

If "EMC for Product Designers - Meeting the European Directive"
is not 'the ugly yellow book,' would somebody please say what
the title of 'the ugly yellow book' is or was?

Thanks in advance.

Re: (no subject)

Hi,
1. There are numerous application notes on USB section layout guidelines...
Once i have used Cypress device.... I found their app notes and reference
designs very useful during development...
2. Yes.It should be impedance controlled... D+/- are differential signals
thus follow it accordingly.
3. We do impedance control - 50 E for single ended and 100 E differential
impedance for diff signals.There are good no of online impedance
calculators. check this one...
http://www.sunmantechnology.com/resources_ec.html
Normally what i do is that, i will do stack design using this one and
allegro calculator and give it to my fav fab house to fine tune it..
otherwise you ask for recommended stack-up from your fab house.. they should
be able to support you on this impedance requirement.
Good luck!!

Ramesh N
