Abstract

A filter network adapted to be placed in parallel with a power supply which provides a high impedance to the 60 Hz utility frequency but acts like a short circuit to all higher frequencies. The network comprises a plurality of parallel circuits, each of which comprise a capacitor, an inductor and a resistor in series with a second resistor coupled in parallel with the inductor. Signal levels above 60 Hz in a prototype circuit using seven such parallel circuits with a parallel capacitor coupled thereto shows that above 60 Hz the signal from the power supply is attenuated by 25-30 dB at 1 KHz and that the impedance is substantially resistive beyond 1 KHz.
