3. Simulation-based approach to EMC
3.1 EMC CAD and simulation
The contribution of software tools has become increasingly widespread in the product or system design process. Figure 29 shows a simplified design flow: starting with a specification that defines the functional performance, mechanical topological constraints and standards to be met, a large part of the design is carried out using CAD (computer-aided design) tools. The automotive and aerospace industries are prime examples of this practice. However, EMC constraints are often not taken into account until the second phase, when a prototype exists on which EMC investigations can be applied.

Standards
Standards and normative documents are available in France from AFNOR for non-electrical documents, and from AFNOR for electrical documents translated into French. For documents concerning electricity and therefore electromagnetic compatibility, international documents are available from UTE. They are in French (left-hand page) and English (right-hand page) for IEC and CISPR documents. Both languages carry the same weight. The...
