Hi,
Im confused regarding the choice of iron powder toroid for a 7Mhz high
pass
filter. I need to use a small size (T68) toroid. For the freq range, some
reference texts say T68-2 is the one, others say T68-6" grade. I see
differing "best Q range" specs for the 6
grade.....2-30Mhz......10-50Mhz...etc.
Have similar need for 20Mhz LPF, but assume "6" is really the choice
there.
Any suggestions as to the relative differences and reasons to choose
between
grades 2 and 6 for the HPF in T68 size?
Thanks,
JEFF
