Filter circuit and power supply unit
First Claim
1. A filter circuit comprising a first filter part and a second filter part which are connected in series each other, the first filter part including a first inductor and a first capacitor, the second filter part including a second inductor and a second capacitor,wherein the first inductor includes a center leg coil wound around a center leg of a magnetic core including the center leg and a plurality of outer legs, each of the outer legs configuring a loop magnetic path in common with the center leg while sharing the center leg,the second inductor includes an outer leg coil wound around the outer leg of the magnetic core,the outer leg coil includes a first outer leg coil part and a second outer leg coil part which are connected in series each other, the first outer leg coil part being wound around the outer leg configuring one of the loop magnetic paths, the second outer leg coil part being wound around the outer leg configuring the other loop magnetic path,the winding directions of the first and second outer leg coil parts are the same in polarity direction, the number of turns of the first outer leg coil part and that of the second outer leg coil part are equal to each other, andthe outer leg coil is wound around the outer legs in a manner such that magnetic fluxes generated in the plurality of outer legs by current flowing in the outer leg coil cancel each other in the center leg part.

Abstract
The present invention provides a filter circuit realizing reduction in the number of magnetic cores on a circuit board and a space occupied by the magnetic cores, and a power supply unit using the filter circuit. A filter circuit includes a first filter part and a second filter part which are connected in series. The first filter part includes a center leg coil and a capacitor, and the second filter part includes an outer leg coil and a capacitor. The center leg coil is wound around a center leg of a magnetic core including the center leg, a first outer leg part configuring a loop magnetic path in common with the center leg, and a second outer leg part configuring another loop magnetic path in common with the center leg. The first and second outer leg parts share the center leg. The outer leg coil is wound around the outer leg parts in a manner such that magnetic fluxes generated in the outer leg parts by current flowing in the outer leg coil cancel each other in the center leg.
