Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)

Electronic components are now an essential part of most technical products. Especially in the vehicle industry, their number and complexity have risen sharply in recent years – and thus also the need for measurements of their electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) to avoid or eliminate electronic faults of all kinds.

Through the establishment of the EMC center, Porsche Engineering has specialized in the interplay between electronic components and the complete vehicle. The center has its own anechoic chamber and state-of-the-art measuring equipment.
