Abstract:
In a filter component with improved attenuation characteristics for common mode noise, an LC series resonance circuit disposed in each of a plurality of shunt circuits is connected at a first end to a first line and is grounded at a second end. The LC series resonance circuit disposed in each of the shunt circuits is grounded at a first end and is connected at a second end to a second line. With this configuration, the LC series resonance circuits resonate reliably so as to define attenuation poles. Accordingly, the resonant frequency of each of the LC series resonance circuits is set to be a frequency that effectively attenuates common mode noise.

An apparatus and method for filtering a signal is described. The apparatus includes a first singly terminated filter that filters a signal in a first frequency range, and a second singly terminated filter that filters the signal in a second frequency range, the inputs of the filters being connected together, wherein an element of the first filter is coupled to an additional element to form a frequency response transmission zero in a stopband frequency range of the first filter.

In a band elimination filter, a plurality of capacitors are connected in parallel between first and second terminals of an electromagnetic noise source which generates voltage fluctuations in a connecting lead connected to the first terminal, with the capacitors being connected to the connecting lead at respectively corresponding branch points. For each capacitor, the total series inductance of a first circuit path is made less than that of a second circuit path, where the first circuit path extends from the corresponding branch point to the second terminal via the capacitor, and the second circuit path extends from that branch point to the first terminal of the electromagnetic noise source. A resistor is connected in series with at least one of the capacitors, for damping parallel resonance caused by inductance components of an adjacent pair of capacitors.
