What are some common sources of radiated interference?
The most common offender in the radiation of EMI is the ac power cord of the electronic device itself. This phenomenon is not limited to ac powered devices; it may be seen on the electronic conductors of dc devices as well. Any conducted interference generated by an electronic device may be radiated by the power cord, or unit wiring, if the conductor length is close to 25% of the wavelength of the offending signal.
