Modeling Common-Mode Chokes

The application note explains how to characterize common-mode choke impedance and parasitic effects with the Bode 500 and B-TCA fixture to create accurate behavioral models for EMI simulation and filter design.

Accurate frequency-dependent measurements reveal higher-order resonances and other parasitic effects that simple impedance tests may miss. 
This data supports more reliable filter optimization, improved EMI suppression, and reduced risk of regulatory or system-stability issues.
