Diodes, high-frequency switching devices, transformers and inductors, and circuit layouts passing high dv/dt or di/dt signals are all potential sources of EMI. EMI is propagated either by radiated or conductive means. Radiated EMI can be sourced from these components as well as by circuit loops that act like antennas and broadcast the noise signals to neighboring circuit paths. This also means that these loops can act as receivers of a broadcasted signal. This radiated EMI noise can be reduced by proper circuit layout and by shielding potential sources of EMI transmission. pass the EN55022 class B limits. The other component of the passive filter is the differential LC network. Again, the inductor is chosen such that it will present a high-impedance in the differential EMI loop at the EMI’s base frequency. The differential capacitor will then shunt the EMI back to its source. The QPI-6 was specifically designed to work with conventional switching frequency converters like Vicor’s Brick products; Micro, Mini and Maxi modules; as well as converters from various vendors. Active EMI Filtering There are two basic forms of conducted EMI that typically need to be filtered; namely common-mode (CM) and differential-mode (DM) EMI. Differential-mode resides in the normal power loop of a power source and its load; where the signal travels from the source to the load and then returns to the source. Common-mode is a signal that travels through both leads of the source and is returned to earth via parasitic pathways, either capacitively or inductively coupled. PICOR’s QPI-6 active EMI filter uses the same basic principles for filtering as the passive approach, but its active commonmode filter can perform as well as a passive filter, when filtering lower frequencies, in much less board area. Figure 8 to Figure 11 are the resulting EMI plots, after filtering by the QPI-6, of the total noise, both common and differential mode, of a Vicor Brick and a DOSA (Distributed-power Open Standards Alliance) compliant converter. These converters are mounted on a QPI-6 evaluation board and tested under various loads. The red and blue traces represent the positive and negative branches of total noise, as measured using an industry standard LISN setup, as is shown in Figures 6 and 7. Differential-mode EMI is typically larger in magnitude than common-mode, since common-mode is produced by the physical imbalances in the differential loop path. Reducing differential EMI will cause a reduction in common-mode EMI. Passive EMI Filtering The basic premise of filtering EMI is to insert a highimpedance, at the EMI’s base frequency, in both the differential and common-mode paths as it returns to the power source. Passive filters use common-mode chokes and “Y” capacitors to filter out common-mode EMI. These chokes are designed to present a high-impedance at the EMI frequency in series with the return path, and a low impedance path to the earth signal via the “Y” caps. This network will force the EMI signals to re-circulate within a confined area and not to propagate to the outside world. Often two common-mode networks are required to filter EMI within the frequency span required to Picor Corporation · picorpower.com QPI-6 Figure 3 – Simplified Active EMI filter circuit. Typically, the lower the frequency the greater the needed inductance would be to properly filter the EMI signal. This means either a larger core or a greater number of turns on a smaller core. A larger core requires more board space, where a smaller core with more turns has a greater amount of unwanted parasitics that can affect the filters ability to attenuate EMI signals. Figure 3 is a simplified schematic of the QPI-6’s active and passive circuitry used for EMI filtering. The QPI-6’s active filter uses a small high-frequency common-mode transformer to filter the higher frequencies and adds a sensing element to it so that the lower frequency common mode signal can be sensed and a correction signal can be generated and inserted into the shield connection. By this means, the QPI-6 is capable of providing EMI filtering of converters in far less space than standard passive filters and can provide filtering over the entire EN55022 class B range. Rev 2.6, Page 3 of 13 QPI-6   QUIETPOWER EMI Management The more effectively EMI is managed at the source, namely the power converter, the less EMI attenuation the filter will have to do. The addition of “Y” capacitors to the input and output power nodes of the converter will help to limit the amount of EMI that will propagate to the input source. favor one topology versus another. The EMI generated by the “base-plate” configuration is much greater than that generated by the “open-frame”. Selecting the right topology will greatly reduce the amount of EMI signal that needs to be filtered. Figure 2 shows the base-plate topology of re-circulating “Y” caps. Here, CY1 to CY4 are connected to each power node of the dc-dc converter, and then are commoned together on a copper shield plane created under the converter. The addition of the copper shield plane helps in the containment of the radiated EMI, converting it back to conducted EMI and shunting it back to its source. The RY resistor, connected between the shield plane and the QPI’s shield pin, provides an impedance that makes the QPI’s common mode noise cancelation signal more effective at removing the common mode noise that would normally return to the shield/earth connection. It is important when laying out the QPI that the RY resistor connects to the QPI’s shield pin before making the connection to earth ground. Figure 4 – An unfiltered converter’s response to “open-frame” (light blue) and “base-plate” (purple) EMI configurations. There are two basic topologies for the connection of the recirculating “Y” capacitors, referred to as “open-frame” and “base-plate”. Figure 4 illustrates how a converter can In Figure 5, the open-frame topology is shown where the “Y” capacitors (CY1 and CY2) re-circulate the EMI signals between the positive input and output, and the negative input and output nodes of the power conversion stage.

In Figure 14, a separate shield plane is required for each converter along with a separate RY resistor.

(4) Figure 16 -Total Noise EMI Plots of PKM 4402NG, connected as shown in Figure 15 The direct connection of the converter’s output to the earth/chassis will degrade the EMI attenuation performance of the QPI-6. Picor recommends that the connection to the earth be made through a series inductor, rated to the maximum output current of the converter, as shown in Figure 15. The EMI plot shown in Figure 16 is of the same converter as in Picor Corporation · picorpower.com QPI-6 Figure 11, but uses an inductor in place of RY and has the converter’s output ground connected to the shield plane. The connection of the shield plane directly to the chassis/earth will also degrade EMI attenuation by the QPI-6 and is therefore not recommended.

PCB Layout When laying out the QPI-6 EMI filter it is important for the designer to be aware of the radiated EMI field that all converters emit and to place the QPI-6 outside of this field area. It is also recommended that the bus lines feeding into the QPI filter are not routed such that they lie between the QPI and the converter, or that their copper planes over-lap on inner layers. This can cause EMI noise to be coupled from input to output via the parasitic capacitance between the planes. Post Solder Cleaning Picor’s LZ version QP SIPs are not hermetically sealed and must not be exposed to liquid, including but not limited to cleaning solvents, aqueous washing solutions or pressurized sprays. When soldering, it is recommended that no-clean flux solder be used, as this will ensure that potentially corrosive mobile ions will not remain on, around, or under the module following the soldering process. For applications where the end product must be cleaned in a liquid solvent, Picor recommends using the QPI-6LZ-01, open-frame version of the EMI filter. In Figure 24, the QPI-6 is located ~1.5 inches from the converter’s input pins, and the BUS voltage pins are located on the side farthest away from the converter, to keep the radiated EMI from by-passing the filter and coupling directly to the BUS feeds.
