Abstract

The average EMR emissions of an electronic device may be reduced by implementing an electrically-active modulated termination. For example, the impedance may be continuously varied at one or more termination locations between two metal substructures to cause a like variation in the amplitude of each component of the EMR. According to one approach, cyclically varying the electrical impedance with a period of less than the time interval over which the EMR is measured will result in a reduction in the average measured EMR.
