Common mode filtration for boost converter EMC

Hello.


I am doing a boost converter 12V in (battery) 20V out. Just 12W.

It is to go in a metal enclosure which is not connected to earth ground.

Now some of the circuit current will couple to the enclosure (magnetically and capacitively due to stray inductance and capacitance respectively).

-This is bad because the “return” current from the boost converter is then no longer the same as the “go” or “hot” current.
-And in effect we say that pulse currents arise in the supply to the boost –and we call these “common mode” currents –that is “common mode noise”.

Now , can I get rid of this common mode noise by putting some small ceramic caps between the circuit ground and the metal enclosure?

-or will this just produce more common mode currents than before because now there is even more capacitance to the case?

O o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o

In fact, must I actually use a common mode choke at the front (supply terminal) end of my power supply?

More in fact, is it not the case that the common mode choke must be used IN CONJUNCTION with the use of small capacitors connected between the circuit ground and the case ?…

-This way the energy that couples to the case is then “sucked” back into the circuit –-….being “sucked” back via the small capacitors that have been placed between the enclosure and the circuit ground ?

Is this how common mode filtration is done in boost converters inside metal enclosures ?

I'm sending buckboost converter circuit picture.
May this picture belog to your problem
I have this circuit Pspice command ...

Just for clarity, I guess, you have a boost converter rather than a voltage inverter suggested by cokokerem?

As a first point, I expect that the circuit has a clear common ground, so it's basically meaningful to drain of capacitive coupled interference currents by an "Y" capacitor.

As a next point, the input and output ripple currents (a boost converter has mainly output ripple) should be filtered by series inductances and parallel capacitors ("L" or "Pi" filters).

Depending on the PCB design and acceptable interference level, some common mode interferences may persist. In this case, additional common mode chokes are an appropriate means, to my opinion.

yes i am doing boost...i need it as it has non-chopped input current.
