RFI suppression chokes
EMC compliance:
a comprehensive choke range
Schaffner offers an exceptionally broad
range of discrete chokes for suppressing
radio frequency interference (RFI), allowing
optimized circuitry for EMC compliance to
be designed easily and economically. This
catalog details current-compensated,
saturating and non-saturating choke types,
providing the ideal components to suppress
any form or combination of common-mode
and differential-mode noise. With around
150 standard products, spanning a broad
spread of inductance values and current
ratings up to 150A (up to 500A on request),
and available in a variety of packaging
styles and circuit configurations suitable for
single- or three-phase systems, designers
can quickly create optimum filtering
solutions for almost every application.

Interference propagation
EMI can propagate by two means:
• by radiation - where the energy can be
coupled either through magnetic or
electric fields, or as an electro-magnetic
wave between the source and victim.
• by conduction - where the EMI energy
will propagate along power supply and
data cables.
Radiated and conducted EMI cannot be
thought of as totally separate problems

quasi-peak detector, and an average

measurements, the impedance of the
mains supply must be constant. The
standards calls for a defined artificial mains

impedance stabilization network (LISN) which gives a defined impedance to the

the cable will act as an antenna. The

The emissions spectrum typically starts off
very large at low frequency and rolls off as
frequency increases. The point at which
the noise falls below the permitted limits
depends on several factors, the most
important being the frequency of operation
and the switching time of the
interference.
Below about 100-200MHz, the most
efficient radiators in a system are usually
the power supply and data cables. Proper
filtering of these cables will reduce

Current-compensated chokes
These chokes employ current-compensated windings to present a large
inductance to common-mode noise signals and handle peak currents
without saturating, utilizing toroidal ferrite cores to pack high inductance
values into compact housings. The family is ideal for interference
suppression in medium-to-high current applications such as
uninterruptible and switched-mode power supplies, and DC stages of
inverters. With a choice of over 40 versions, in a range of package styles,
designers can quickly create optimal filter solutions for any application.

Rod-cored chokes
These chokes present a constant inductance, and are ideal for
attenuating differential-mode or symmetrical interference problems,
particularly at lower frequencies up to around 500kHz. They are
suitable for replacing saturating or current-compensated chokes in
higher power three-phase systems handling currents in 100A+ range.
• 0.2 to 150A ratings (higher currents on request)
• 0.1mH to 92mH inductances
• fast-on or PCB-mount versions

RI Series
Saturating chokes
The inductance of saturating-type chokes reduces as load current
increases, and is ideal for attenuating the differential-mode or
symmetrical interference generated by fast-switching thyristors, triacs,
transistors and phase angle control devices. Inductance values are
not shown because the leakage inductance is relatively high.
• 0.8 to 25A ratings
• single or dual choke configurations
• flying lead or PCB-mount versions
Choke selection table Choose the choke RI xxx offering the required current rating and component configuration.
Types with the letters PC in the name have pins for PCB mounting; others have flying lead wire connections.
