Introduction

EMC/IC Solutions Inc. was founded in June 1996 to provide cost-effective expert consulting services to small and large companies in the area of Electromagnetic Compatibility. By its very nature, EMC Engineering expertise is required only sporadically during the design/build/test cycle of equipment. For this reason it is often not cost effective to maintain this specialised resource in-house. Whether it be to handle over-flow during peak periods, or as the sole resource in this area, EMC/IC Solutions should be added to your companies resource pool.

In it's short existence, EMC/IC Solutions has provided EMC Design, Analysis and Test expertise on four aerospace projects and one military (Navy) project. This work has resulted in a total of fifteen deliverables, including EMC Control Plans, EMC Analysis Documents, EMC Test Plans, EMC Test Reports, and PDR/CDR support. All deliverables were submitted to the customers satisfaction, on time and within budget.

Standards

EMC rules, regulations and standards have been developed and are imposed on equipment and systems intended for both civilian and military applications. Failure to comply with these regulations can result in lost sales, and in the extreme, legal action. Whether they be statutory, or simply contractual, the array of standards are daunting. EMC/IC Solutions can provide guidance from the design stage through to compliance testing on the following standards, and others:

Military	Commercial
MIL-E-6051	FCC Part 15
MIL-STD-461	FCC Part 18
MIL-STD-462	ANSI Standards
MIL-STD-1541	IEEE Standards
MIL-STD-1542	SAE Standards
MIL-STD-45662	CISPR 11 - 22
	IEC 801
	VDE
