Goals and objectives
of the course in terms
of competences and skills
Goals of the study course: 1. To provide basic knowledge in the field of electromagnetic compatibility. 2. To introduce with new products development stages related to electromagnetic compatibility testing and certification. Objectives of the study course: 1. Introduce students to legislation in the European Union and Latvia in the field of electromagnetic compatibility, in accordance with 2014/30/EU Directive and Latvian MK No 208. 2. To provide an insight into the assessment of the electromagnetic compatibility documentation according to the harmonised standards. 3. To introduce electromagnetic compatibility testing methods to which industrial electronic equipment is subjected before placing on the market. 4. To introduce troubleshooting and development methods applicable in cases when electromagnetic compatibility testing has reviled non-compliance (filtering, shielding, component integration, wiring, design of mechanical components). 5. To provide insight into alternative testing methods applicable during the development of industrial electronic equipment. 6. To develop the ability of students to independently assess and evaluate testing and measurement results.
