This is a guide for the system designers and installers faced with
the day-to-day issues of achieving EMC, and will be found valuable
across a wide range of roles and sectors, including process
control, manufacturing, medical, IT and building management. The
EMC issues covered will also make this book essential reading for
product manufacturers and suppliers - and highly relevant for
managers as well as technical staff.
The authors' approach is thoroughly practical - all areas of
installation EMC are covered, with particular emphasis on cabling
and earthing. Students on MSc and CPD programmes will also find in
this book some valuable real-world antidotes to the academic
treatises.
The book is presented in two parts: the first is non-technical, and
looks at the need for EMC in the context of systems and
installations, with a chapter on the management aspects of EMC. The
second part covers the technical aspects of EMC, looking at the
various established methods which can be applied to ensure
compatibility, and setting these in the context of the new
responsibilities facing system builders.
EMC for Systems and Installations is designed to complement Tim
Williams' highly successful EMC for Product Designers.
Practical guide to EMC design issues for those involved in systems
design and installation.
Complementary title to Williams' bestselling EMC for Product

directors, engineers, designers and students designing,
manufacturing or studying the design of electrical products covered
by the Low Voltage Directive.
Unlike many textbooks that offer general guidance only this book
provides illustrated examples of non-compliant products and
suggests solutions. It also provides detailed guidance notes to
EN60950 - one of the most widely used harmonised standards.

This book provides the knowledge and good design practice for the
design or test engineer to take the necessary measures to improve
EMC performance and therefore the chance of achieving compliance,
early on in the design process.
There are many advantages for both the component supplier and
consumer, of looking at EMC at component and PCB level. For the
suppliers, not only will their products have the competitive edge
because they have known EMC performance, but they will be prepared
should EMC compliance become mandatory in the future. For consumers
it is a distinct advantage to know how a component will behave
within a system with regard to EMC.
Shows how to achieve EMC compliance early on in the design
process

The main links with your PC and the outside world are the centronic
port, used for connecting the printer, the RS232 port, used for the
mouse, and the games port for a joystick. This book explores how
these input/output (I/O) ports can be put to use through a range of
other interfacing applications. This is especially useful for
laptop and palmtop PCs which cannot be fitted with internal I/O
cards. A novel approach is taken by this book, combining the
hardware through which the ports can be explored, and the software
programming needed to carry out a range of experiments.
Circuits are provided for simple testing tools, and three
experimental boards - which can also be purchased ready-made.
Ready-to-run TurboPascal programs are available on the Newnes web
site.
A huge range of applications are considered, turning the PC into a
flexible core of a variety of systems. External devices considered
include opto-isolator drivers, power drivers, LED drivers, relay
drivers, special driver ICs, and methods of driving opto-isolated
zero-crossing solid state relays, stepper motors, sound generating
devices and displays. Ways of gathering information from the
outside world are given, as well as connection to digital devices,
remote control and digital communication.
As well as teaching in this field, Pei An has written numerous
articles for magazines such as Electronics World and Electronics
Today International.

The MSP430 is a simple 16-bit microcontroller with a compact and
economical CPU containing only 27 instructions and 16 registers. It
offers other advantages which make it suitable for low power
applications: a rich variety of peripherals for analog input and
output; rapid processing wake up time; the treatment of data and
address on equal footing.
Introduction to the MSP430 combines a tutorial approach with a
description of the CPU and main peripherals. The tutorial builds
from a basic program for lighting LEDs to the use of a timer. It
uses the C programming language from the start but programs are
also developed in assembly language to show how a program interacts
with the hardware. To demonstrate the special features of the
MSP430 full coverage is given to the instruction set, sigma-delta
analog-digital converters and timers. Finally, the book gives an
introduction to the MSP430 which extends the architecture to
address more memory and which provides a bridge to the ARM 7
processor.
