As you can see the model T60006-L2045-V102 outperforms
ferrite toroids in common mode impedance at least on lower bands. It provides easily few kilo
ohms of common mode impedance.
You can use these Nanocrystalline toroidal
cores as an antenna common mode
balun/choke and as an interference common mode choke
with switched power supplies, inverters etc.
Recommended common mode impedance for a common mode current balun.
- 1/4 ground planes, inverted-L and other 1/4 antennas 500 ohms or more
- Dipoles, loops, 1/2 wave slopers and other center fed antennas 1000
ohms or more
- OCF dipoles (windom)
and End-Fed wires (with counterpoise) preferable 2000 ohms or more on lower
bands.
On the higher bands there are not so much man-made noise, thus 500 ohms
or more is enough for all antennas on higher bands.
Nanocrystalline material could be used
also in other RF application. Read more of the good
nanocrystalline properties here.
