Grounds for Grounding – A Circuit–to–System Handbook - Tapa dura

Reseña del editor

Grounding design and installation is critical for the safety and performance of any electrical or electronic system. Blending theory and practice, this is the first book to provide a thorough approach to grounding from circuit to system. It covers: grounding for safety aspects in facilities, lightning, and NEMP; grounding in printed circuit board, cable shields, and enclosure grounding; and applications in fixed and mobile facilities on land, at sea, and in air. It's an indispensable resource for electrical and electronic engineers concerned with the design of electronic circuits and systems.

Contraportada

The first book to cover grounding from the circuit to system andacross the entire spectrum of applications

Grounds for Grounding provides a complete and thoroughapproach to the subject of designing electrical and electroniccircuits and systems, blending theory and practice to demonstratehow a few basic rules can be applied across a broad range ofapplications.

The authors begin with the basic concepts of ElectromagneticCompatibility (EMC) that are essential for understanding groundingtheory and its applications, such as "ground loop," which is one ofthe most misunderstood concepts in EMC. Next, they provide anintroduction to grounding, including safety grounding, groundingfor control of electromagnetic interference, and grounding-relatedcase studies. Subsequent chapter coverage includes:

• Fundamentals of grounding design

• Bonding principles

• Grounding for power distribution and lightning protectionsystems

• Grounding in wiring circuits and cable shields

• Grounding of EMI terminal protection devices

• Grounding on printed circuit boards

• Integrated facility and platform grounding system

Practical case studies are integrated throughout the book to aidin readers' comprehension and each chapter concludes with a usefulbibliography. Grounds for Grounding is an indispensableresource for electrical and electronic engineers who work with thedesign of circuits, systems, and facilities.
