In this paper, unusual harmonics noise problem of digital electronic products in mass production was introduced and a practical solution was proposed. Generally, 5th or higher harmonics noise level has been ignored in circuit designs because over 5th harmonics noise decreases by 40 (dB/decade). Through some measurements, it is confirmed that over 10th harmonics noise can propagate and radiate in case of a certain PCB or housing conditions. We propose a capacitively loaded micro-strip low pass filter for commercial products having spatial design constraints and measured the effectiveness. The proposed structure can solve both of the continual increment of harmonics noise level and the spatial design constraint of commercial products. We expect the proposed method be effectively used for various digital electronic products.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
