Turns and Impedance Characteristics
When the desired performance of an EMI core cannot
be obtained with a single pass through the core, the
impedance characteristics can be changed with multiple
turns.
A turn is counted by the number of lead-wire windings
which pass through the inner hole of the core. Windings
on the outside of the core do not count. See Figure 1 for
examples of one, two, and three turns.
Adding turns will result in higher impedance while also
lowering the effective frequency range. See Figure 2 for
an example.
Core Material and Effective Frequency Range
There are two ferrite material options for
KEMET EMI Cores: Nickel Zinc (NiZn) and
Manganese Zinc (MnZn). Each core material
has a different resistance and effective
frequency range. The MnZn core material
has a lower resistance compared to the NiZn;
therefore, adequate insulation is required
before use.
The NiZn core material is typically effective
for frequencies in the MHz band range such as
the FM-band, while the MnZn core material is
typically effective for the kHz band range such
as the AM-band. See Figure 3.
It is recommended to measure the actual
frequency range effectiveness in the target
application.
EMI Cores
B-20 Series Bead Cores
Overview
KEMET B-20 Series bead cores are
designed for use on round cable. The
wide range of Manganese Zinc (MnZn)
and Nickel Zinc (NiZn) options allows
for targeting of specic frequency
ranges. EMI cores are part of a family
of passive components which address
the issues of noise or electromagnetic
interference (EMI) in circuits or
systems.

EMI Cores
Ring Type
 There are two materials of ferrite, Ni-Zn series and Mn-Zn ser ies. Ni-Zn series is e
ive for kHz band range.
 Note that above
e band range i s a reference only. Examination of s
with actual instrument is necessary.
 As Mn-Zn series has lower resistance compared to Ni-Zn series, make sure to provide
adequate insulation before use.
Characteristics and how to count turns
 Number of turns are counted by how many times the lead wire pa sses through the inner
hole of the core. Do not count the number of lead wire winding outside the core, as it results
 When desired performance can not be obtained just b y 1 turn, impedance characteristics
value can be raised b y increasing th e turn. In this case, the
e frequency band should
be checked that it is in the desired range as adding turns resu lts in lowering down the
