Abstract
An assembly for mitigating at least one of an electrostatic discharge and electromagnetic interference is provided. The assembly includes (a) first and second spaced apart electrical conductorsandand (b) a mitigation moduleelectrically coupled to the first and second spaced apart electrical conductors to control a magnitude of an electrostatic discharge and/or electromagnetic interference in the first and second electrical conductorsand. One or more of the following statements is true: (i) the mitigation modulecomprises a ferrite material; (ii) the mitigation modulecomprises a lossy dielectric material; and (iii) an equivalent electrical circuit for at least part of the mitigation modulecomprises at least a first circuit segmentcomprising a first inductor and a first capacitor electrically connected in parallel and a second capacitorelectrically connected in series with the first circuit segment. The first and second electrical conductors can be, for example, a ground plane of a printed circuit boardand a wall of the enclosure or chassis
