The elimination of electromagnetic pickup and interference for microcircuits is demonstrated by replacing the wired power connection with a plastic optical fibre and a photo‐voltaic converter. The coupling of light from an inexpensive source to the fibre is facilitated easily with a plastic bulb‐lens antenna. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
