EMC filters for reliable power supply

Prevent downtime by limiting interference voltages and currents

Middletown, PA – EMC filters from Phoenix Contact prevent premature failures, shortened service life, and unplanned downtime in high-interference environments. The new filter portfolio limits interference voltages and currents that sensitive equipment can generate during normal operation and under fault conditions. 

The FIL-1S family is a conventional in-line filter that protects 120-240 V AC and DC power circuits. The FIL products have additional PE terminal points. This improves the filter effect for high-frequency interferences between the active wires and the ground potential.

Filters in the SFP2 family provide double protection against overvoltage pulses and high-frequency interference. They feature an integrated surge protection function that protects both the input and output side of the filter. 

The TTC-6-SFP filters also provide both noise and surge protection but in a slim 6.2-mm wide package. These narrow filters increase signal quality by filtering high-frequency noise interference and suppressing transient surge activity that can disrupt data communications. 

The new EMC filters are available with Push-in and screw connection technology. They are DIN rail-mountable and have IP20 degree of protection. The FIL-1S and SFP2 families are rated for use in Class I, Division 2 locations. Learn more at www.phoenixcontact.com/us-emc-filters

Quickly and accurately identify inter-domain leakage issues in IC designs

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Power domain leakage is a major IC reliability issue, often missed by traditional tools. This white paper describes challenges of identifying leakage, types of false results, and presents Siemens EDA’s Insight Analyzer. The tool proactively finds true leakage paths, filters out false positives, and helps circuit designers quickly fix risks—enabling more robust, reliable chip designs. With detailed, context-aware analysis, designers save time and improve silicon quality.
