Common-mode choke in ECG circuit
I'm designing a PCB for single lead ECG measurement and I ran across this TI reference design that contains a common-mode choke (P/N Murata DLW31SN900SQ2L). What's strange is that I can't find any ...

What is this SMD common mode choke?
A pair of components was accidentally destroyed on my Korg Volca Modular synth:
Through the magic of getting another identical synth, I was able to see how it is supposed to be on a working unit:

Common mode choke rated current
I have ordered a common mode choke (https://product.tdk.com/system/files/dam/doc/product/emc/emc/cmf_cmc/data_sheet/30/db/ind_2008/b82721s0.pdf) to reduce the common mode noise available on the 5V DC ...

Are common mode chokes really needed for Conducted Emission standards when there are only two terminals?
Common mode chokes make sense for power inputs when there are three terminals: power line, power return line and an "earth ground". You measure the noise of power line with reference to ...

How to create schematic of common mode choke that reflect on Common mode, differential mode and mixed mode? [closed]
I aim to create a schematic that can replicate the results exactly as seen in the measured S4P file. I have conducted the measurement using a VNA and am attempting the schematic simulation in CST. ...

Can a common mode choke be used to filter a SMPS dual power supply?
I have a switched mode dual power supply with +12V, GND and -12V outputs. I'm seeing a lot of high frequency noise on the output of this power supply that I'd like to attempt to filter out. The noise ...

How can I select a common mode choke for DC/DC power conversion stages
I want to attenuate 15 MHz noise signal using a common mode choke at 5 V power lines stage of a circuit that generate digital signals with less than 100Mhz.
When you use a common mode choke for a ...

How are SPICE files created compared to S4P files generated from a VNA?
When measuring impedance versus frequency using the same data in both SPICE and S4P formats, why do I obtain different results?
COMMON MODE IMPEDANCE
Common mode impedance 10514 Ohm at 79.1 MHz
S4P ...

Why is a bandwidth discrepancy occurring despite consistent Q factors in the given Graph?
I was trying to do curve fitting the common-mode choke in CST Studio according to the selected S4P file from TDK (ACT1210G-800-2P-TL05).
However, the common-mode impedance measured from the file does ...

Why my Common mode choke with 2 turns showing multiple Peaks in the graph?
I analyzed the CMC choke by Wurth Electronics (part no: 744830039080) using VNA and obtained the insertion loss for both common mode and differential mode.
The graphs match with the datasheet:
While ...
