Half Day:
Basic Training Bootcamp
Advanced Training Bootcamp

Basic Training Bootcamp - REGISTER

April 14, 2009 (8 a.m. to 12 p.m.) - Beverages and Course Materials Provided

The Bootcamp Workshops focus on the basics of Magnetics. If you need to understand magnets better for your job, want to get more from the conference presentations or are new to the field, then the Basic Training Bootcamp is the right place to start. The Basic Training workshop will cover the fundamental magnetic concepts such as hysteresis, the origin of magnetism, units, magnetic materials, basic processing, magnetizing and thermal effects.

April 14, 2009 (1 p.m. to 5 p.m.) - Beverages and Course Materials Provided

If something more advanced is what you are looking for, attend the Advanced Training Bootcamp. After a brief review of the basics, including self-demagnetization and loadlines, we will discuss raw materials and their pricing, advanced processing techniques, manufacturability, costing methods, new design case studies and what’s new on the horizon.

Why do EMI filters that require higher dB losses at very low frequencies demand larger parts and more volume?

This EMI Design Seminar covers the subject above and basic concept of EMI filter design. The seminar is being completely revised with latest cores; the various filter types covering the advantages and disadvantages of each topology; and how to calculate the component values for these filters. It also discusses the proper procedures that should be handles up front to save both time and cost. Three phase filters are covered. Load and source impedances are handled. The design of these components values follows. All of this information is for both differential and common mode applications. This seminar discusses the required high frequency losses and how to extend the frequency response of the lower frequency components to add to this loss. The filter enclosures are also discussed, such as the best aspect ratios for these cases to avoid some common filter problems. This workshop covers component layout such as inductor quadrature. At the end of the day, each attendee will design a filter and the designs will be discussed.
