I've built myself a common mode choke last winter (2022) but haven't created
|
|
|
|
|
this page yet. Also I haven't used it much because I haven't been very active
|
|
|
|
|
this year.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
So this is basically a 140-43 toroid with 9 turns of RG174 connected to
|
|
|
|
|
BNC connectors.
|
|
|
|
|
|

It works very well and I have made two measurements recently.

{{< figure src="logmag_outer.png" caption="It attenuates common mode current with more than 20dB" >}}

I find this okay for now but I still wonder if this can be made any better
|
|
|
|
|
(maybe 30dB attenuation?). Would I benefit from even more attenuation?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I will probably find out on another day.
