Noise suppression by CMCC
Common-mode current choke (CMCC) coils work as a simple wire against differential mode current (signal), while they work as an inductor against common mode current (noise).
version with PL SO-239 connector
version with F connector
Example - measure by Nils DK8OK
CMCC isolation
- for 50 Ohm RG-316 coax cable 10 turns
0.5 to 50 MHz
0.1 to 2.5 MHz
- for controller cable on small core inductors
0.5 to 50 MHz
0.1 to 2.5 MHz
Insertion LOSS of CMCC
- for 50 Ohm RG-316 coax cable 10 turns
