Subject: Re: [TowerTalk] Another way to make a CM choke ?
I'm pretty sure some of the common mode choke approaches do exactly that ...
except using the stray capacitance between the shields of the turns to get the
resonance. I suspect there are websites showing the right configurations
(number and diameter of the turns) necessary for resonance. It's been a while
since I read Jim's paper, but I think he mentions that approach as well.
