Standex Edge addresses Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) through components like inductors and common mode chokes, which function as common-mode noise filters to suppress unwanted noise. High-frequency power conversion inherently increases EMI, requiring designs to integrate EMI mitigation techniques like filtering and grounding strategies to achieve regulatory compliance.
Standex employs specific design strategies to offset common-mode noise, including implementing shielding between windings to provide a physical barrier against external interference. Shielding helps reduce capacitive and inductive coupling. Furthermore, custom solutions may incorporate shielding to isolate current from sensitive downstream components. The use of ER core geometry in Standex designs helps reduce EMI that might interfere with sensitive equipment. Design services also include proper PCB layout considerations, such as using ground planes to reduce noise and keeping loop areas minimal to limit EMI.
