Re: 3rd harmonic trap



Original poster: Ed Phillips <evp@xxxxxxxxxxx>

"Dear List
I am wondering whether it would be possible to use a parallel-resonant
LC
circuit in series with the primary of an SSTC as a "trap" to suppress
the
unwanted 3rd harmonic mode of oscillation.
Does anyone know if this is feasible or even desireable?

	You could certainly do that, but don't think the difference would be
noticeable.  There isn't that much harmonic energy present to begin with
and the inductive coupling to the tuned secondary wouldn't pass much of
whatever is there.
