Familiarization
Press PRESET:
Connect CH1 to RARE_SIG on the demo board,
Connect CH2 to 10_MHZ_CLK
Toggle Demo Board DOWN button until 8 is displayed.
Press AUTOSET
Adjust Vertical and Horizontal Position and Scale. (~40ns/div, 1V/Div on each channel).

Causes of EMI
EMI is often caused by the switching of signals, e.g. power supply, clocks,
memory interface, etc. This is referred to as narrowband interference and
generally occurs at very specific frequencies related to components on your
board.

Note the 825MHz CW with the NFP by scanning the probe above the surface of the
PCB. Also note the power supply and other harmonic emissions. Note that there
is something down around 10MHz we want to look at further (there is a small, but
larger spike down there. We can admit that we are focused on the process not that
this might be an actual problem.

Power Supply design choices have a large impact on EMI emissions, frequency
and time techniques can help unravel the mystery.
