Publishers note: Since the publication date of this text there have been changes to EMC regulatory bodies, and to Australian EMC standards which are now mostly harmonised with those of the IEC.

Revised and updated edition of the original in a series of practical handbooks on technical subjects, the EMI Filter Handbook 2nd Ed. provides a wealth of theoretical and practical information on filter techniques for the reduction of electrical interference.

EMI filters are essential components for solving interference problems and meeting EMC requirements of regulatory bodies such as the ACMA (Australia), the FCC (USA), and the European Community. The handbook provides guidance on the reduction of conducted interference and is applicable to EMI/RFI in computers, communications, industrial electronics, home entertainment systems, mobile radios, domestic appliances and many more applications.
