Filtered electrical connector and combination having same

摘要

A filtered electrical connector for a power module comprises a connector body having a back wall partly defining a chamber at one end of the connector body. An alternating current filter is retained in the chamber, and a terminal extends through the back wall, the chamber, and the alternating current filter disposed in the chamber. The filtered electrical connector is attached to a housing having a metal portion with the chamber disposed in a pass-through hole of the housing. The terminal is attached to an electrical circuit inside the housing and the alternating current filter is grounded on the metal portion of the housing to filter alternating current flowing outside of the housing from the electrical circuit inside the housing via the terminal.
