PE-1812ACC510STS Filters

Common Mode Chokes (CMCs) provide a level of interference elmination and signal filtering for systems using differential signals in high-noise environments. The PE-1812ACC510STS is a CMC designed specifically for applications where two differential signals need to be filtered and reduced to an acceptable level of interference.

The PE-1812ACC510STS is composed of a winding of conductive material surrounding a core material acting as the magnetic circuit, also known as the airgap. The winding of conductive material is divided into two differential signal paths that are connected in a way that produces a magnetic field in the windings when there is a differential signal flow. The magnetic field produced by the differential signals is then coupled with the core material, forming a closed loop and producing a magnetic field of resistance surrounding the core. The windings and core together form what is known as an inductor.

CMCs like the PE-1812ACC510STS are designed to reduce the amount of common mode noise, which is noise that exists between two or more signals. When noise exists between two signals, the signals lose their information capacity. Common Mode Chokes help to reduce this type of interference by blocking the flow of current along the common mode. This is achieved by passing the differential signals through an inductor, which reduces the current flow by dissipating the energy of the signal through the inductive reactance.

In addition to reducing the amount of common mode noise, CMCs like the PE-1812ACC510STS are designed to provide a level of impedance matching. This can be achieved by varying the number of winding turns in the inductor, thus controlling the amount of inductive reactance, which in turn affects the amount of power and frequency that the inductor can accept or reject. Impedance matching is important in order to reduce the amount of signal loss that can occur during transmission through the inductor.

The PE-1812ACC510STS CMC can be used in a variety of applications, including power inverters, audio and video equipment, radio frequency (RF) transmission, and computers and communications systems. It can be used to filter and reduce noise in differential current and voltage lines, or it can be used to filter out common mode noise that could cause interference between two different signals. The PE-1812ACC510STS is an ideal choice for applications where two differential signals need to be filtered and reduced to an acceptable level of interference.
