Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of electromagnetic compatibility technology, specifically relating to a high-performance rectangular filter plug. Background Technology

[0002] Rectangular plugs are used in conjunction with sockets. Due to their rectangular shape, they can provide maximum space utilization in different devices. They also have advantages such as simple locking method, low contact resistance, trapezoidal shell to prevent misinsertion, strong impact and vibration resistance, and the ability to select appropriate coatings according to different corrosive environments. They are mainly used in blind-insertion situations between devices, such as in the military industry, such as aviation, aerospace, and weaponry, as well as other electronic and electrical equipment markets.

[0003] With the increasing number of system slots (boards) and PCI connections, more and more connectors are being used in high-speed, high-end applications. The drawbacks of previously focusing only on circuit board layout, space, and size during selection, while neglecting electrical performance, are becoming increasingly apparent. In the military and other electronic equipment markets with stringent electromagnetic compatibility requirements, the demand for plugs with filtering functions is growing, and the specifications are becoming increasingly demanding. Adding filtering functionality to the internationally standard rectangular electrical connector can effectively solve electromagnetic compatibility issues and better meet customer needs.

[0004] To solve practical problems encountered by equipment in electromagnetic compatibility testing, it is often necessary to combine the electrical performance parameters of the customer's products and the frequency exceeding the standard to carry out targeted high-performance filtering.

[0005] Conventional rectangular sockets and plugs lack filtering capabilities. While some connectors and rectangular sockets now incorporate filtering features to meet market demands, the electromagnetic environment is becoming increasingly complex and interference is growing due to designers not considering electromagnetic interference during the design phase, as well as the high integration and informatization of internal electrical equipment and the influence of high-frequency devices. During electromagnetic compatibility testing according to national and military standards, the following deficiencies were discovered:

[0006] Due to space constraints within the internal equipment, the socket filtering space is small or nonexistent, making it impossible to perform filtering design effectively.

[0007] Due to significant internal interference, a single socket filter cannot effectively filter out the interference, making it difficult to meet customer needs.

[0008] Due to grounding, secondary interference, and spatial shielding, the filtering effect inside the equipment will be severely reduced. Utility Model Content

[0031] To make the objectives, contents, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples.

[0032] refer to Figure 1 The present invention provides a high-performance rectangular filter plug including a rectangular plug 1 and a filter module 2. The rectangular plug 1 and the filter module 2 are connected by a flexible cable. The filter module 2 is used to filter out noise interference on the power line. The filter module 2 is fixed on the rectangular plug 1 through a mounting hole 3.

[0033] The block diagram of the filter module circuit is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, by Figure 2 As can be seen, the filtering module mainly consists of an EMI filter circuit. This EMI filter circuit is primarily composed of a common-mode inductor, a common-mode capacitor, and a differential-mode capacitor. The circuit schematic is shown below. Figure 3 As shown, it includes common-mode single-phase inductors La and Lb, differential-mode capacitors C1, C2, and C5, and common-mode capacitors C3 and C4; the two ends of C1 are the input terminals and are connected to the input terminals of La, C2 is connected to the output terminal of La, and C3 and C4 are connected in series and then in parallel with C2 and connected to the input terminal of Lb, C3 and C4 are grounded, and C5 is connected to the output terminal of Lb.

[0034] The common-mode single-phase inductor La is used to suppress high-frequency common-mode interference generated in the power supply line. It uses high-performance microcrystalline material and features very low core loss, very high saturation flux density, high permeability, and good magnetic shock stability. The common-mode single-phase inductor Lb is used to suppress low-frequency common-mode interference generated in the power supply circuit. It uses nickel-zinc material and features high permeability, high saturation flux density, and low loss, primarily suppressing low-frequency common-mode interference. The differential and common-mode capacitors used have high capacitance stability and low dielectric loss. Common-mode capacitors C3 and C4 are 1μF in size and are used to suppress common-mode interference in the power supply; differential-mode capacitors C1, C2, and C5 are 10μF in size and are used to suppress differential-mode interference in the power supply. The connection relationship of the filter network composed of inductors and capacitors is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the power supply interference noise first passes through the first-stage filter network composed of C1, C2 and La, which filters out most of the differential and common-mode interference in the power supply; then it passes through the second-stage filter network composed of C3, C4, C5 and Lb, which filters out the remaining differential and common-mode interference in the power supply.

[0035] As can be seen, in order to meet the usage requirements of customers in specific structural spaces, this utility model adopts a structure that adds a filter to the outside of the rectangular plug device; the filter module uses a high-performance inductor made of microcrystalline and nickel-zinc materials, which can effectively suppress power supply interference; compared with the non-filtered product, the external dimensions of this utility model achieve high-performance filtering simply by increasing the thickness of the rectangular plug; the filter module can be approached to the device with the shortest distance and reliably grounded.

[0036] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
