Abstract: An integrated electromagnetic interference filter includes an inductor assembly for attenuating both common mode and differential mode electromagnetic interference conducted emissions from electronic equipment. The inductor assembly includes an outer core of permeable material defining an outer window, and an inner core of permeable material disposed in the outer window and defining an inner window. A first power lead for connecting the equipment to a source of electrical power includes a portion wound in one direction about only the outer core. The inductor assembly includes a second power lead for connecting the equipment to the source of electrical power with a portion of the second lead wound about both the inner and outer cores in the opposite direction to the winding of the portion of the first power lead. The outer core provides a magnetic path for the attenuation of common mode emissions and the inner core provides a magnetic path for the attenuation of differential mode noise.
Abstract: A multiple capacitive function wound capacitor. The capacitor includes a winding having a pair of ends and includes first, second and third insulative layers with each of the layers extending substantially from one end of the winding to the other end of the winding. The capacitor also includes a first electrode disposed between the first and second insulative layers and a second electrode located between the second and third layers. A third electrode is positioned on the side of the third layer away from the second electrode. One of the electrodes extends to one end of the winding and short of the other end while another of the electrodes terminates short of the one end but extends to the other end. The remaining electrode terminates short of both ends of the winding. A conductive tab electrically connects this last-mentioned electrode with a tab extending beyond a winding end and being insulated at the location where it passes that winding end.
