What another expert writes about Henry Ott:
OTT, HENRY W., Electromagnetic Compatibility Engineering,, Wiley Interscience, 2009 –
An absolutely essential book. Henry Ott nailed it, in this definitive text that ties together
both theory and practice in EMC. If you disagree with a single word in this book, you’re
wrong! This is a significant update and expansion of Noise Reduction Techniques in
Electronic Systems, Wiley Interscience, Second Edition, 1988, which has been the standard
for two decades. Ott doesn't "hide behind the math," including just enough to allow
solid numbers to be assigned to each mechanism that affects EMC.
The author, and our entire industry, are greatly indebted to Henry Ott, whose excellent
workshop on EMC I attended in 2004, and whose book, cited above, should be on everyone’s
shelf. It would be difficult to conceive of an issue related to EMC that Henry
hasn’t thought through in great detail, considering every possible ramification, from the
micro to the macro, and from circuit performance to manufacturability to user friendliness
to where things will be in 20 years. A side-comment in his book (first published
in 1976, updated in 1988 and again in 2009) makes it clear that he knew about
SCIN at least 20 years ago.
