Electromagnetic Interference Impacts on Electronic Systems and Regulations

The electromagnetic interference (EMI) is dangerous for our daily lives. It produces vital electronic failures. These problems are due to bad shielding materials for electronic systems. The main objective of this article is to raise the awareness of EMI and its consequences on critical functions of electronic systems. In this article, the general aspects of this topic are introduced. Case histories about EMI are presented. It was suggested that the study of the optical properties of materials is a central task for reducing the effect of EMI on the proper function of electronic devices.
