PEEC-models for EMC filter layout optimization

The subject of this paper is related to EMC filter integration. Due to stray interactions between filter components and PCB tracks, or between the components themselves, the transfer function of the filter can be modified. The work will first study these stray interactions and the possible electromagnetic modelling using PEEC method. Then, we aim proposing an automatic procedure to determine the optimal component placement and the associated track design, in order to improve the filter transfer function. Therefore, light models are needed. There will be presented and validated using experimental results.
