Solution Overview

Problem

Existing conduction noise filtering circuits do not adequately inhibit conduction noise on power lines and fail to effectively attenuate common mode noise, which can lead to electromagnetic interference affecting electronic devices.

Innovation Solution

A conduction noise filtering circuit comprising a first coil part, a second coil part, a detector, and a capacitor, where the detector magnetically couples with the coils to detect common mode noise and an amplifier supplies offset power to the capacitor to offset the noise, thereby reducing common mode noise through a connection terminal shared by both coil parts.

Solution Approach 1:

The filtering circuit is divided into multiple functional modules: a first coil part connected to the power line, a second coil part connected to the output terminal, a detector for detecting common mode noise, and a capacitor for supplying offset power. This segmentation allows each module to perform its specific function efficiently, improving overall noise inhibition performance while maintaining reasonable circuit complexity

Solution Approach 2:

The detector acts as an intermediary element that detects common mode noise on the power line and converts it into a signal that can be processed by the capacitor. The capacitor then supplies offset power based on the detected noise signal, effectively counteracting the common mode noise. This intermediary mechanism enables precise noise cancellation without requiring complex circuit structures

Solution Approach 1:

The detector continuously monitors common mode noise on the power line and provides real-time feedback information. The capacitor receives this feedback signal and dynamically adjusts the offset power supply to counteract the detected noise. This feedback mechanism ensures that the filtering circuit adapts to varying noise conditions, significantly improving noise attenuation performance
