9. EMC Considerations
Differential and Common-Mode Filter with More
than One Module. No special precautions are needed
when using two or more modules. The filter required will
have the same characteristics as a single module filter, however the wire size on the magnetics will need to
reflect the increased input current. Shown below is the
input conducted noise for two modules sharing a
common input source.

Differential and Common-Mode Filter with More than One Module

Conducted Noise vs. Load
Three common-mode chokes are offered as standard accessories.
NOTE: Common-mode filters may be common to one or
more modules, but only one should be used with modules
interconnected via GATE IN’s or, GATE OUT to GATE IN. As
an example, Driver / Booster arrays or Drivers with GATE IN’s
tied together to provide a common disable function.
