If your prototype buzzes, reboots, or fails at the lab, this book pays for itself in a weekend.
Written in plain English with zero fluff, Quiet Circuits shows makers, hardware engineers, and startup teams exactly how to noise-proof electronics so they pass FCC/CE and behave in the real world.
You'll learn simple, visual mental models (no heavy math), field-tested checklists, and "do this first" fixes that turn mystery dB spikes into predictable wins. Think of it as your EMC playbook-from bench pre-checks to chamber day success.
You'll be able to:
Stop hum, hiss, and random resets with the right ground/return choices.
Use near-field probes, SDRs, and a LISN to catch 80% of issues at home.
Lay out quiet PCBs: planes over traces, stitching vias, and safe splits.
Pick and clamp cable shields so they help (not hurt).
Tame switching supplies and hot loops with snubbers and smart routing.
Pass ESD, EFT, and Surge by placing protection where it works.
Keep Wi-Fi/BLE antennas happy-clearances, windows, and simple matching.
Quiet 3D printers, CNC, audio/synth rigs, robotics, and precision sensors.
Reduce emissions in firmware (slew control, PWM phasing, spread spectrum).
Walk into the lab with a fix kit, worst-case firmware, and a plan-and walk out with a pass.
What makes this different
Plain-English explanations with memorable examples (no intimidation, just insight).
Quick-Fix Index (symptom ? likely cause ? first fix) you'll use daily.
Pre-compliance corner: build/borrow tools to de-risk before you pay for chamber time.
Designing for the sticker: repeatability, labeling, and habits that prevent regressions.
Glossary you'll actually read while you work.
Who it's for
Makers, product designers, EE/ECE students, test engineers, audio folks, IoT/robotics teams, and anyone who's ever thought, "It worked on my bench-why is it failing now?"
Bottom line: Quiet circuits ship faster. This book shows you the shortest path from noisy prototype to certified product-with fewer spins, fewer late nights, and far more confidence.
