Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a broadband filter for confining or attenuating electromagnetic interference noise from one or more electrical signal sources, In an embodiment, the broadband filter comprises one or more filter stages electrically coupled by galvanic or by electromagnetic means to the one or more electrical signal sources for confining or attenuating conducted electromagnetic interference noise; one or more conductive shields electrically coupled by galvanic or by electromagnetic means to the electrical signal sources wherein the shields encapsulate the filter stages for confining or attenuating conducted and/or radiated electromagnetic interference noise; and one or more conductive partition layers to encapsulate the one or more filter stages such that the partition layers electromagnetically couple adjacent filter stages for a selected frequency range of the electromagnetic interference noise. The thickness of the conductive partition layers is chosen to control the degree of coupling.
