New specialist electromechanical distributor Live
Electronics is releasing Common Mode
(MC) and Differential Mode (MD) chokes from French manufacturer
DICEP EMC, which are cost effective, compact, and suitable for AC
and DC applications up to line voltage and frequency.
Offered in a standard open frame
construction, with the option of
encapsulated units, they feature nominal
current ratings from 0.5A to 8.0A, operating
temperature range -25ºC to +100ºC,
250Vac rated voltage, and DC line frequency
to 440 Hz. Having a PCB footprint of 25.4 x
10.26mm, they are available in low MOQs
for cost-effectiveness, and are designed for
use typically in power supplies, in particular
in railway signaling and communications
equipment. Both the MC and MD devices
are suited to applications in which electrical
circuit noise must be reduced to a minimum.
