DESCRIPTION
Interpoint specifically designed the FMH-461™ EMI filter to reduce
the input line reflected ripple current of the following high frequency
DC/DC converters: MHD, MHF, MHF+, MHV, MSA , and MTR
series converters. It will also reduce EMI for several of Interpoint’s
lower frequency converters: MHE/MLP, MHL, MTO, and MTW
series. The FMH-461 filter is ideal for use in applications which must
meet MIL-STD-461C levels of conducted and radiated emissions.
Throughput current is 1.5 amps. At 16 VDC input (low line), the filter
provides 24 watts of throughput power.
FILTER OPERATION
FMH-461 filters are rated for full power operation from –55°C to
+125°C baseplate temperature. Operation is offered up to the
absolute maximum of +135°C with derating as defined in
“Recommended Operating Conditions” on the following page. The
maximum DC insertion loss at full load and nominal input voltage
(28 VDC) represents a power loss of less than 2%.

LAYOUT REQUIREMENTS
The case of the filter must be connected to the case of the converter
through a low impedance connection to minimize EMI.
MIL-STD NOISE MANAGEMENT
When used in conjunction with Interpoint converters, the FMH-461
EMI filter reduces input ripple current by 35 dB or greater at 200 kHz
and by at least 50 dB at 500 kHz (see Figures 5 and 6 and electrical
characteristics table). This attenuation gives the converter/filter
combination performance which exceeds MIL-STD-461C’s CE03
test.
1. MSA models may require an inductor in series with the MSA’s positive input.
2 µH is the suggested value.
