      Problematic pacemakers (25/08/2017)

      During the French Revolution, beheading was the preferred method of execution. The guillotine was used for thousands of executions, meaning there was no shortage of experimental material for biologist Marie Francois Bichat. Bichat tested the electrical stimulation of hearts, which was instrumental in the development of the modern day pacemaker. Nowadays, pacemakers are commonly used to maintain a regular heart rate. This article looks at how electrical interference can led to pacemaker issues.

      EMC Regulatory Compliance does not ensure functional safety (12/05/2017)

      One of the biggest problems faced by all electrical and electronic equipment is that of electromagnetic interference (EMI). However, what's peculiar is that, despite the rising use of devices that are susceptible to EMI, until recently there have been no clear guidelines for EMC as regards functional safety. Here, Keith Armstrong, worldwide EMC specialist at EMC Standards, looks at how engineers can ensure that EMI will not cause excessive functional safety risks.
