Mn-Zn ferrite line EMI suppressor for power switching noise in the impulse/high current bias regime

: Ferrite cores 50 mm long were formed from large ferrite tubes obtained using fine Mn-Zn ferrite powder(M-30-IHIS) extruded and sintered at 1280 ◦ C for 2 h. Core impedance was measured in the HF range (0.1–100MHz), varying the number of coil turns and DC bias. Characteristic parameters such as maximum of impedance Zm ,frequency of maximum impedance Fm , and suppressing range f around Fm were determined for each configuration.The analyzed ferrite cores were tested as round cable suppressors in the impulse regime. Impulses were generated byMOSFET transistor switching of high currents (1–10 A). The number of turns, impulse current, and DC bias current werevaried in the range from 0 to 10 A. Magnetic interference configurations were formed on the ferrite core using oppositewound coils and tested in the impulse regime. Suppressor responses to different impulses were mutually compared andanalyzed. Finally, two ferrite cores were EM coupled by a short circuited coil to form a novel line EMI suppressoraimed for suppression of power switching noise. Several configurations were formed with coupled cores acting on amagnetically interfering principle with opposite coils. The realized configurations were analyzed in view of applicationfor EMI suppression in an uninterruptible power supply and AC/DC and DC/DC converters
