What is EMC Certification?

EMC certification refers to the process of verifying that electronic and electrical products meet the required standards for Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC). Electromagnetic Compatibility means that a device is compatible with its electromagnetic environment; it does not emit unwanted electromagnetic energy that could interfere with the operation of other products (i.e., it has acceptable levels of electromagnetic emissions) and is immune enough to the electromagnetic energy present in its environment (i.e., it has acceptable levels of electromagnetic immunity). This is crucial for ensuring that electronic devices work as intended without causing or suffering from electromagnetic interference (EMI).
