TOYO Corporation Launches AI-powered EMI Mitigation Assistance Software

Digitized “collective intelligence” helps engineers reduce EMI noise 

 

Tokyo, Japan, Apr 22, 2021 – TOYO Corporation today launches EMINT, software guided by artificial intelligence that suggests action plans for electronic designers and engineers to resolve EMI noise issues found on the products they are developing.   EMINT draws from a comprehensive database of past measurement data, providing engineers with an effective framework to accelerate troubleshooting productivity and resolve EMI noise.  TOYO has a long and rich experience in developing industry-standard EMC software, and  TOYO plans to extend the functionality of “EMINT” and the list of EMI measurement software that can be used with EMINT.

Electronics with increasingly sophisticated technologies can be found all around us. They are in electric vehicles (EV), autonomous cars, 5G, IoT devices, and medical equipment to name a few.  But testing them to ensure that they comply with EMI regulations is a more challenging and daunting task.  When electromagnetic noise issues arise, engineers often rely on trial-and-error and/or ad hoc methods to try to correct the issue.  They may try to replace a component or two, change some wiring and/or add shielding.  The problem is that while a particular engineer struggles to find an answer, another engineer within the company may already have the answer highlighting a common problem within the organization.  The sharing of knowledge is typically not something that occurs in a formalized and structured way.

That all changes with EMINT.  The software taps into the collective intelligence of a company’s engineering team.   AI technology provides a platform for a repository of knowledge, to be entered and built out over time.   The platform data is sorted, indexed and collated for easy search and retrieval.   EMINT helps engineers to exchange and share technical knowledge, empowering them to accelerate their troubleshooting work and get their products out into the marketplace before the competition does.

Key Features

  • AI-based assistance
    • Find similar noise patterns in past measurement data to the target noise
    • Provide information on the mitigation measures taken against the similar noise based on the comments other engineers left for that noise in the past
    • Identify the components that are likely to generate EMI noise
  • Digital shift of the EMI debugging process
    • Improved data search. Search by file name or metadata value and narrow down to a particular noise based on spectrum characteristics
    • Insert a comment and a link to past data for a selected frequency point in the measurement data
    • Group by Project. Group selected data as a project for management purposes
  • Supports measurement data taken by TOYO’s EMI measurement and analysis software ”EPX/RE”
  • Uses patented technology

EMINT is currently shipping.  For more information or if you would like to see a demonstration, please contact us at info@toyotechus.com.
