EMI Emissions Reduction

Supported Platforms: MOD5441x, NANO54415, SB800EX

This example demonstrates how to implement the EMI reduction options described in the associated document EMI Noise Reduction Suggestions. Each design will have it's own unique behaviors and some or all of these suggestions can help reduce EMI. In addition to the code described below, the app note also covers design considerations for Ethernet cabling, cables in general, enclosure design, input power filtering (very important), and PCB routing.

The example code includes:

  • Enable/disable unused clocks
  • Enable/disable unused peripherals
  • Modify signal slew rates
  • Putting the processor in wait mode while idle
  • The MOD54415 also has the ability to enable spread spectrum clock mode for the processor (available on h/w revisions 2.3 and later).
