Abstract

An EMC filtering device comprises a printed circuit comprising at least two parallel layers of a high-permittivity material, which are positioned between two layers of an insulating material that are parallel to one another and to the high-permittivity material layers. A core made of a magnetic material comprises three cylindrical arms passing perpendicularly through the high-permittivity and insulating material layers. At least two windings winding around the first arm of the magnetic material core, the windings and the first arm forming a first coil. At least two windings winding around the second arm of the magnetic material core, the windings and the second arm forming a second coil. The two coils being coupled coils.

First claim

a printed circuit comprising at least two parallel layers of high-permittivity layers:
a first layer of high-permittivity material being positioned between a first layer of insulating material and a second layer of insulating material, the first layer of high-permittivity material comprising a negative side and a positive side on a face in contact with the first layer of insulating material and comprising a ground plane on a face in contact with the second layer of insulating material; and
a second layer of high-permittivity material being positioned between the second layer of insulating material and a third layer of insulating material, the second layer of high-permittivity material comprising a positive side and a negative side on a face in contact with the third layer of insulating material and comprising a ground plane on a face in contact with the second layer of insulating material;

a core made of a magnetic material comprising three cylindrical arms passing perpendicularly through the two layers of high-permittivity material and the three layers of insulating materials;
at least two windings around a first arm of the core made of a magnetic material, the windings and the first arm forming a first coil;
at least two windings around a second arm of the core made of a magnetic material, the windings and the second arm forming a second coil; and
wherein the two coils are coupled coils.

2. The filtering device according to claim 1 , wherein the core further comprises two plates, each positioned at one end of the three arms of the core; and wherein each of the layers of high-permittivity material and insulating material comprises three circular openings to form three cylindrical openings for positioning the three arms of the core when all of the layers are stacked together.

3. The filtering device according to claim 1 , wherein a first winding of each coil is positioned on a top face of the first layer of high-permittivity material in contact with the first layer of insulating material; and wherein a second winding of each coil is positioned on a bottom face of the second layer of high-permittivity material in contact with the third layer of insulating material.

4. The filtering device according to claim 1 , wherein the windings of the two coils are flat.

5. The filtering device according to claim 1 , wherein the windings of the two coils are wound in a same direction to provide coupled coils in a common mode.

6. The filtering device according to claim 1 , wherein the windings of the first coil are wound in a direction opposite of the windings of the second coil to provide coupled coils in a differential mode.

7. The filtering device according to claim 1 , wherein the core made of a magnetic material comprises an air gap.

8. The filtering device according to claim 1 , wherein the layers of high-permittivity material are made of a carbon material.

9. The filtering device according to claim 1 , wherein the core made of a magnetic material is made of ferrite.

10. The filtering device according to claim 1 , wherein the layers of insulating material are made of a FR4 type dielectric material.
