Differential-Mode EMI Reduction in a Multiphase DCM Flyback Converter.

Switched converters are a source of electromagnetic interference (EMI) due to the hard switching and abrupt edges in the current and voltage waveforms. Multiphase converters can reduce the EMI at the source, minimizing the conducted EMI generation, without changing dramatically the normal operation of the circuit. Input filter can be greatly reduced, radiated EMI is lower, and internal EM! problems are minimized. This paper is focused on exploring multiphase converters as a topological technique to reduce conducted differential-mode EMI generation at the source, considering some nonidealities of the multiphase converter.
