System for measuring an electromagnetic field, a control system using the measuring system, and an electronic circuit designed for the measuring system
View Patent ↗This system for measuring an electromagnetic field radiated by an electrical component of an electronic circuit, the electrical component being fixed to a dielectric substrate of the electronic circuit, is wherein a transducer ( 90 to 95 ) is etched on the substrate of the electronic circuit.
1. A system for measuring an electromagnetic field radiated by an electrical component of an electronic circuit, the electrical component being fixed to a dielectric substrate of the electronic circuit, and a thin layer of metal being deposited onto at least one face of the substrate and forming an electromagnetic screen, the system comprising:
a unit ( 82 ) for measuring electrical energy independent of the electronic circuit, and
a transducer ( 90 to 95 ) connected to the measuring unit and adapted to convert the electromagnetic field radiated by the electrical component into electrical energy measured by the measuring unit,
wherein the transducer is etched in the thin layer of metal onto the substrate of the electronic circuit.
2. A system according to claim 1 , wherein the transducer ( 90 to 95 ) includes a coil and the measuring unit is adapted to measure the current in that coil.
3. A system according to claim 2 , wherein the coil is formed of a looped track ( 100 ) etched on the substrate and whose two ends form lands for connecting the coil to the measuring unit.
4. A system according to claim 2 , wherein the coil has only one turn.
