Abstract :
In this work, out of band electromagnetic interference (EMI) of frequency dependent negative feedback amplifiers is investigated. The occurrence of nonlinear behaviour is analysed and the place in an amplifier topology located, where its presence is most critical to EMI sensitivity. Recommendations are made regarding placement of linearized stages in a circuit so as to make use of frequency selectivity and loop gain to reduce susceptibility to out of band interference.
