[IRCA] NOISE-BEATING



I've been involved in recent threads with some of you, regarding common-mode noise suppression.

I went to Fair-Rite with a question about suppression on USB cables and wanted to share the response:

Hi Mark, Thank you for your Ask the Adviser question! While I am unsure as to what is the source or frequency of your common-mode noise, given that USB clock frequency is 24 MHz I would say that 61-material would be suppressing at too high a frequency (> 200 MHz) to have an major impact.

Instead, may I suggest trying a broad-band material such as 31 (operating between 1 MHz and 300 MHz) or 43/44 (operating between 25MHz and 300 MHz).

As for the number of turns, this is proportional to the impedance you require (Z ~ N^2) and again depends on the amount of noise suppression your system requires - typically one turn (or one pass through the aperture of the core) should be sufficient. Hope this helps! Sincerely, Rachael Parker



Cheers!

There's SO much I still don't know!
