Army in RF communications and with Ford Motor Company in advanced fuel systems design. Joining Chrysler in 1985, Mr. North was one of the early contributors in the effort to develop an EMC analysis and testing capability with an automotive focus. Over the more than 20 years that he was with Chrysler, he contributed to the development of a world class in house automotive EMC capability, which assisted in the advancement of the automotive industry in EMC. Mr. North was also involved in the EMC development and qualification of passive restraints systems at Chrysler. He was a major contributor in the development of Chrysler corporate EMC standards and served as a consultant on EMC and E/E systems issues. As a Senior Engineering Specialist with DaimlerChrysler, he also contributed to the development of international EMC standards that combined different backgrounds and processes. He is a member of the SAE EMC Committee and its Integrated Circuits EMC Task Force and is the co-author of the SAE J1752 series of standards. Mr. North has three patents for EMC test development and has co-written several papers on IC RF Emissions and EMC test development that were presented at IEEE Symposiums. Mr. North has more than 20 years of experience in EMC and is a senior member of the IEEE
