Why EMC can't be the "final step." On design risks in defense electronics

In many projects, electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is still treated as a final verification stage. In practice, this approach increasingly leads to delays, costly design changes, and hard-to-fix errors, especially in complex defense systems. As Dominik Kowalczyk, an explosion protection specialist at Dacpol, emphasizes in an interview with Evertiq, EMC analysis should cover the entire project lifecycle—from concept to implementation. He also pointed out where signal integrity is most often lost and why the classic approach to EMC is failing to keep up with the growing complexity of systems
