CS Analyst Model Description

CS Analyst performs conducted susceptibility calculations by evaluating a conducted susceptibility model over a range of frequencies specified by the user.  The conducted susceptibility model is comprised of four major components:

Source (not shown in the figure below)

Left-Hand Circuit

Conductors

Right-Hand Circuit

 

 

The CS Source (not shown) models the current or voltage amplitude of the noise signal present on the conductors.  For CS analyses, source characteristics are defined using the Limit module.  Source amplitude is defined as a function of frequency, and may be specified as being in series with, or in shunt between, conductors, shield, or ground plane, or various combinations of these.  The Source may be connected at any point along the length of the conductors.

The Left-Hand Circuit models circuit components connected to the left-hand end of the conductors.  Typically, but not always, the Left-Hand Circuit will consist of interconnect components (e.g. printed circuit traces), EMI filter components, and equivalent circuits for active circuit components.  Left-Hand Circuit components may be lumped circuit elements, such as resistors and capacitors, as well as printed wiring board traces.

The Conductors are electrical cabling that connects the Left-Hand Circuit to the Right -Hand CircuitConductors may be a variety of configurations consisting of circular conductors, ground planes, and shields.

The Right-Hand Circuit models circuit components connected to the right-hand end of the conductors.  Typically, but not always, the Right-Hand Circuit will consist of interconnect components (e.g. printed circuit traces), EMI filter components, and equivalent circuits for active circuit components.  Right -Hand Circuit components may be lumped circuit elements, such as resistors and capacitors, as well as printed wiring board traces.
