Abstract :
An original study about system clock frequency effects on electromagnetic immunity of the microcontroller general purpose input buffer is presented. For the first time clock frequency effects are considered in electromagnetic immunity measurement of the microcontroller input buffer to conducted radio frequency interferences. Results presented show that clock signal variations in frequency could induce conducted immunity level fluctuations of the microcontroller input buffer.
