EMI Filters: Recommendations and measurements
September 2003 - Ed: 1
P. MERCERON AND P. RABIER
With the development of wireless telecommunications, consumer products and cellular phones are subjected
to Radio Frequency Interference and may generate ElectroMagnetic Interference. This is in addition
to ElectroStatic Discharge the user can apply when touching a connector like a bottom connector on a cellular
phone.
In the past, filtering was achieved by discrete devices (capacitors, resistors) and ESD protection was done
by discretes diodes. Cellular phone size drop and enhanced features require faster signals and more and
more integrated devices which are becoming very sensitive to ESD or EMI/RFI.
Discretes devices impose a well designed layout to minimize parasitic effect of PCB inductances while Integrated
Passive and Active Devices suppress most of these inductances due to very short tracks between
passives on the die itself.

Fig. 1: Frequency response comparison between discrete and IPAD™ filter.
Discrete filter will behave like a rejection filter but the rejection frequency will be depending on parasitic inductances
while the IPAD filter will act like a low pass filter.
EMIF filters have three main functions, the first is of course to filter EMI/RFI, the second is to protect inputs
and outputs against ESD and the third one is to transmit data from inputs to outputs. EMIF datasheets provide
data and curve measured in specific conditions. The goal of this note is to explain test conditions for
EMIF devices.
1-Frequency response
EMIF target is to pass low frequency signals and to reject frequency higher than 800MHz especially
900MHz, 1.8 and 2.4GHz.

will fit customer requirements
