Can you stack different ferrite mixes, like Mix 31 and Mix 43, in the same RF choke? In this video, we take a technical look at what actually happens when you combine different core types on the same coax. We’ll separate documented theory from assumptions, explain why stacked cores behave as a series impedance condition, and clarify whether there’s any magnetic interaction between different mixes.
No folklore. No assumptions.
