How you can Support The Channel / graymanpota
Welcome to our latest RF experiment! In this video, we're diving deep into the world of RF chokes and common mode current attenuation. Have you ever wondered if increasing the number of ferrite beads in an RF choke can yield better results in reducing common mode currents? Well, we did, and today, we're putting it to the test!
Common mode currents can wreak havoc in RF circuits, causing interference, signal degradation, and even damage to sensitive equipment. RF chokes with ferrite beads are commonly used to combat this issue, but the optimal number of beads for maximum attenuation is a question that many RF enthusiasts have.
In this video, we'll walk you through our experimental setup of an RF choke with varying quantities of ferrite beads. We'll explain the theory behind RF chokes and common mode currents and provide a detailed overview of our testing methodology.
Throughout the video, you'll witness the results of our experiments, as we measure and compare the attenuation of common mode currents for different numbers of ferrite beads. Will more ferrite beads equate to better common mode current suppression? Or is there an optimal quantity that strikes the perfect balance?
Join us on this scientific journey as we explore the fascinating world of RF chokes, ferrite beads, and their impact on common mode current attenuation. Whether you're a seasoned RF engineer or just a curious enthusiast, this video will offer valuable insights and practical knowledge.
