The TCM2010H is the industry's first array product to incorporate two filter elements into a single chip.

TDK has released the TCM2010H EMI filter array, a noise filter for high-speed data transmission lines including HDMI version 1.3 signal lines The TCM2010H is the industry's first array product to incorporate two filter elements into a single chip

It measures 2 x 1 x 0.8mm, reducing the required mounting space by more than 20% compared to earlier single-element filters.

The incorporation of two filter elements into a single filter array also contributes to a reduction in mounting costs.

The dual elements of the TCM2010H mean that the array can address the four differential transmission signal lines of an HDMI terminal, including the clock signal line in only two components rather than four, facilitating a reduction in component count of 50%.

The array also reduces crosstalk to a level at which no design countermeasures are required, simplifying system design.

By combining the thin-film pattern formation technologies that it has developed for HDD magnetic heads and original coil pattern design technologies, TDK has given the component a cutoff frequency of 6GHz.

The TCM2010H also features a rated current of 100mA and a rated voltage of 10V.

The TCM2010H is designed for use in HDMI and S-ATA terminals, which are becoming increasingly important as the shift to HD video speeds up, transmitting signals between devices such as flat-panel displays, video recorders, and game consoles at a much faster rate than USB terminals.
