Joop, The cap is isolate any DC from the transformer, The manual for TADD-1 has this iformation at the TAPR site has this manual http://www.tapr.org/~n8ur/TADD-1_Manual.pdf. On Wed, Jul 21st, 2010 at 9:46 PM, Joop wrote: > Hi, > > I noticed in several circuits that the 10MHz isolation trans

Hi, I noticed in several circuits that the 10MHz isolation transformer in input and output circuits have a 6.8nF or 10nF capacitor to GND. How necessary is this for suppression of unwanted signals? Is the transformer itself not sufficient? I would expect common mode issues to be a bit worse with
