Setting up your first electric powertrain measurement can be exciting – but also a bit chaotic. If you're like most engineers, your initial setup probably looked a little messy, and chances are, the data you collected was riddled with noise.
So what’s the culprit behind all that interference?
EMI isn’t just a nuisance – it can wreak havoc on your measurements. It’s generated by common components like inverters, variable frequency drives, and other high-frequency electronic equipment. Without proper EMI mitigation, your data accuracy can suffer significantly.
Fortunately, there are simple, effective steps you can take to minimise EMI and ensure your measurements are clean and reliable.
A few small adjustments can make a big difference in the clarity of your data, so by following these simple guidelines, you’ll dramatically improve the quality of your measurements. Cleaner data means faster troubleshooting, more reliable results, and ultimately, a smoother path to market for your electric drive systems.
