Electromagnetic filter for operating in common and differential mode

Abstract

An electromagnetic filter for operating in common and differential mode having a toroidal-like magnetic core; first and second separated coils wound around the magnetic core, the first and second coils and the magnetic core configured to provide a common mode filter. The filter also has a third coil that surrounds the magnetic core and the first and second coils and arranged around a Z axis that is coaxial with an inner hollow part of the magnetic core, the third coil being configured to provide a filter operating in differential mode. Two sheets are also arranged between opposite external faces of a capacitor to thermally isolate the capacitor from the coils, the capacitor and sheets being arranged inside the inner hollow part. A layer of a thermal conductive magnetic compound encloses all the elements to increase leakage inductance and to enclose a magnetic field generated by the third coil.
