Effective use of EMC analysis tools in the automotive product development process

The pressures of today´s markets cause suppliers of automotive electronics to find better ways of developing products. The use of analysis is a highly effective way to bring compliant product to the market place, en time. A workflow is proposed to guide an engineering team through the arduous task of developing a product with often fewer resources and time available than ever before. Predictive analysis provides the ability to create ´virtual´ board iterations, saving tune, and costs of development. Additionally, analysis is effective at creating product ´blueprints´ and making them available for later design re-use.
