Abstract

To separate the CM and DM noise in the EMI generated in various electrical electronic systems, passive and active separators have been researched. These separators are an important part of an effective active EMI-filter. The passive separator has some advantages, in that it is easy to realize at a low price and its structure is very simple. However, its major drawback is that its accurate inductor realization and accurate core selection are very difficult. The active separator is smaller in size and more accurate, but its main drawback is that an op-amp which has a broad band frequency response is necessary, its cost is high, and a DC power circuit is required. This paper compares the characteristics of EMI filters which apply the existing passive separator and proposed active separator. It was concluded that an active separator is needed for expensive and accurate equipment, whereas a passive separator is sufficient for inexpensive and general purpose EMI filters.

각종 전기전자 시스템에서 발생하는 EMI 성분을 공통성분 (CM) 과 차동성분 (DM) 으로 분리하기 위해서 수동분리기와 능동분리기를 연구하였다. CM과 DM 성분 분리기는 능동 EMI 필터를 효과적으로 구현하는데 중요한 요소이다. 수동분리기는 인덕터값을 실현하는데 있어 기술적으로 쉽고 가격이 저렴한 장점이 있으나 상대적으로 큰 오차값이 발생하여 정밀 제작이 요청되므로 부피가 커지고 core의 선택이 어려워지는 단점이 있다. 능동분리기는 OP-Amp를 이용하기 때문에 부피가 작아지고 CM, DM 분리의 정확도를 높일 수 있는 장점이 있으나 주파수 특성이 광대역이어야 하고 가격이 비싸며 별도 DC 전원이 요청되는 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 수동 분리기와 새롭게 제안한 능동 분리기를 적용한 각각의 EMI 필터의 특성을 분석하였다. 따라서 높은 정밀도가 필요한 고가의 장비에는 능동 분리기를 사용하는 것이 정밀도를 개선하는데 유리하며, 일반적인 용도로 저렴한 가격이 요청되며 충분한 설계 면적을 활용할 수 있고 높지 않은 정확도에서도 동작 가능하다면 수동 분리기가 더 바람직하다.
