Abstract :
A new method to measure electric field coupling between PCB copper traces is presented. This method enables measurement of noise from waveforms obtainable from breadboard prototypes, which is available in an early stage in the design process. The measurement result can then be analyzed and provide information for further PCB design. This method is verified by experiments and applied to an off-line flyback converter
