IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON POWER ELECTRONICS, VOL. 18, NO. 6, NOVEMBER 2003 1309 A New Active Common-Mode EMI Filter for PWM Inverter Yo-Chan Son, Student Member, IEEE, and Seung-Ki Sul, Fellow, IEEE Abstract— This paper presents a new active common-mode elec- to increase the insertion loss, which makes the common-mode tromagnetic interference (EMI) filter for the pulse-width modula- filter bulky. Many researchers have tried to develop some ac- tion (PWM) inverter application. The proposed filter is based on tive filtering techniques in order to overcome such limitations the current sensing and compensation circuit and it utilizes a fast transistor amplifier for the current compensation. The amplifier [8]–[12]. utilizes an isolated low-voltage dc power supply for its biasing and In this paper, a new active common-mode EMI filter is intro- it is possible to construct the active filter independent of the source duced in order to mitigate the conducted common-mode EMI. voltage of the equipment.

Its analysis and experimental verification will be given in this paper. Index Terms—Common-mode, EMI, inverter, PWM, transistor amplifier.
