EMC countermeasures for onboard automotive electronic components have become crucial as the use of electronic control grows in conjunction with the adoption of increasingly advanced functions and the use of electronic equipment for more functions. In response to this market need, TDK developed clamp filters that are suitable for automotive use as an effective noise countermeasure against the effects of electromagnetic noise on the cables that link the various onboard electronic control units (ECUs) and units.
The ZCAT08V-BK and ZCAT12V-BK clamp filters have an original structure consisting of a vertically split cylindrical ferrite core with an integrated resin case for mounting on cables. The ferrite material, a key component of the filter, provides outstanding magnetic characteristics and high-frequency absorption properties achieved through precise control of the fine structure using TDK's original materials and process technologies.
