Abstract

In this work, we propose an improved switching scheme (called chaotic frequency modulation (CFM)) for switched-mode power supplies to suppress the electromagnetic interference (EMI) noise source. The basic principle of CFM is to use a chaotic signal to modulate the switching signal such that the harmonics of noise power is distributed evenly over the whole spectrum instead of concentrated at the switching frequency. When compared with the conventional pulse width modulation (PWM) scheme, significant improvements in both conducted and radiated EMI noise levels were found with CFM method. For conducted EMI, the peak noise level was reduced by 25 dB. For radiated EMI, we found that the noise was found mainly in the frequency range of 30 MHz to 230 MHz and the CFM scheme would help to reduce the peak noise level in this frequency range by 22 dB. © 2002 IEEE.
