Conventional EMI filters have tried to use an active EMI filter as a series by the series connection of two EMI filters for CM and DM noise. However, the proposed filter is formed into one circuit by using the active EMI filter which is able to filter CM and DM noise components together. As a result, the active EMI filter showed the outstanding quality in mass and volume under 50% and electric characteristics have been compared to the passive EMI filter in approximately 150kHz~10MHz. Furthermore, the proposed circuit has simple circuit components by comparing with the series EMI filters, and electrical characteristics are similar. The noise have been attenuated to maximum 20dBuV.

Recently, LED is being used as various applications such as home lightings, work lightings and so on. EMI noise generated from LED driver have become a problem according to increase the use of LED. In this paper, Active EMI filter composed active and passive components is discribed as a method of solving a problem of EMI. The proposed filter is applied to the 160W LED load to verify performance experimentally. To compare the performance, We did an experiment using the proposed filter and the passive filter on the same 160W LED load and Driver System. As a result, The proposed Active EMI filter attenuated Conduction EMI noise better than any existing passive filter.

Recently, using the electronic devices was increased with semiconductor developments. So, the EMI(Electromagnetic interference) problem become to important issue for coexistence with each electronic devices. The EMI is caused by switching operation from the power switches as the FET and the transistor in power conversion devices. In this paper, the hybrid EMI filter that composed with active components and passive components was described. The EMI filter is applied to the 160 watts LED driver experimentally verify the performance. The hybrid EMI filter is compared with non-filter, only passive filter and only active filter. The proposed EMI filter attenuated CM noise more than traditional passive filter.

In this paper, the conducted EMI reduction performances of active feed-forward current-sensing current-actuation (CSCA) and voltage-sensing current-actuation (VSCA) filters for a three-phase induction motor drive system are evaluated by experiments. For comparison purposes, the conducted EMI (CM emission, DM emission and total emission) of a three-phase induction motor drive with a conventional CM choke, a conventional CM choke in series with an active VSCA filter, and an active CSCA filter (where the CM choke was modified and used as a sensing current transformer) were compared to the case of a system without any filter inserted. Experimental results show that the active CSCA and VSCA filters can improve the CM reduction performance of the conventional CM choke by about 5 dB especially at low-frequencies. However, for DM comparisons, it shows that there is no different between cases with and without filters inserted.

This paper presents a novel active common-mode EMI filter for the PWM inverter application. The proposed filter is based on the current sensing and compensation circuit and it utilizes a fast transistor amplifier for the current compensation. The amplifier utilizes an isolated low-voltage dc power supply for its biasing and it is possible to construct the active filter independent of the source voltage of the equipment. Thus the proposed active filter can be used in any application regardless of its working voltage. The effectiveness of the proposed circuit is verified by experimental results.

This paper presents the analysis and design of an active electromagnetic interference (EMI) filter (AEF) for the common-mode (CM) noise reduction of switching power converters. The features of the several types of AEFs are discussed and compared in terms of implementation. The feed-forward AEF with a voltage-sensing and voltage-cancellation (VSVC) structure is implemented for an LLC resonant converter to replace a multiple-stage passive EMI filter and thereby reduce CM noise. The characteristics and performance of the VSVC-type AEF are investigated through theoretical and experimental works.

In this paper, The proposed board is developed by EMI compliant Dash Camera with $360^{\circ}$ omni angle. The proposed board is designed by designing DM and CM input noise reduction circuit and applying active EMI filter coupling circuit. The DM and CM input noise reduction circuit design uses a differential op amp circuit to obtain the DM noise coupled to the input signal via the parasitic capacitance(CP). In order to simplify the circuit by applying the active EMI filter coupling circuit, a noise separator is installed to compensate the noise of the EMI source to compensate the CM and DM active filter simultaneously. In order to evaluate the performance of the board for the proposed EMI response, an authorized accreditation body has confirmed that the electromagnetic certification standard for each frequency band is satisfied.

This paper deals with stability of active EMI filter. Feed-forward type voltage-sensing voltage-injection (VSVI) AEF is best topology when considering the filter size and leakage current. But it is not studied in stability. Therefore, the detailed and simplified transfer function is derived and it is used to analyze stability. The experimental results are provided to verify the effectiveness of the analysis.

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.

A Boost Power Factor Correction (PFC) Converter employing Zero Voltage Switching (ZVS) based Compound Active Clamping (CAC) technique is presented in this paper. An Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI) Filer is connected at the line side of the proposed converter to suppress Electro Magnetic Interference. The proposed converter can effectively reduce the losses caused by diode reverse recovery. Both the main switch and the auxiliary switch can achieve soft switching i.e. ZVS under certain condition. The parasitic oscillation caused by the parasitic capacitance of the boost diode is eliminated. The voltage on the main switch, the auxiliary switch and the boost diode are clamped. The principle of operation, design and simulation results are presented here. A prototype of the proposed converter is built and tested for low input voltage i.e. 15V AC supply and the experimental results are obtained. The power factor at the line side of the converter and the converter efficiency are improved using the proposed technique.
