Abstract: A circuit that includes two current path circuits—a first current path circuit and a second current path circuit in which current flow is in opposite rotational directions in a current flow plane. If a same differential voltage is applied across the first current path circuit and the second current path circuit, this will induce relative counter rotational current in each current path circuit. This is true even if the first voltage and/or second voltage are changing. Accordingly, the counterflows at least partially cancel out electromagnetic interference across a range of frequencies.
