Ferrite beads are also often used in high frequency analog circuits.
Frequent application is power filtering
Page 3
Unlike other high permeability materials like iron, ferrite material has a much higher resistivity High resistivity means low eddy current losses up to high frequencies, IE they pass signals without much loss up to high frequency
Page 4
Creates resistive loss Loss increases with frequency In ferrites used for EMC this does not happen until 10s or 100s of MHz
Page 5
Limitations of Ferrites
All ferrites make EXCELLENT LINEAR INDUCTORS up to at least 1MHz, often well beyond 10MHz At high frequencies ferrites exhibit parasitic capacitance that bypasses the resistive loss.
Insertion loss falls off at 800MHz or lower Insertion loss no more than 10dB at 2GHz even for the highest frequency ferrites The actual working frequency range depends on the formulation

Undamped, a plane cavity would have to be < 0.12 sq to avoid peaking with a MPZ1608S221A bead

Damping Options
Damping can be achieved by a number of means. The most common:
Adding series resistance Adding shunt resistance Adding series resistor to the capacitor Adding a damped dominant pole
Page 18
Page 19
Damping w/ Shunt R
Generally impractical as low value R draws multiple amperes for modest impedances
Page 20
Page 21
Obviates need for external resistor Requires lower Q cap than MLCC
Generally Al electrolytic or tantalum with high ESL Require MLCC(s) to get low ESL for HF filtering

SPICE based lumped equivalent extraction is most accurate Always evaluate with appropriate external circuit model

Can I meet this with placement and/or etch manipulation Is a ferrite bead the right tool for the job?

Summary
Ferrite beads may be used to isolate circuits
Reduced noise in analog power feeds
Ultra-quiet clock power, reduces jitter Quiet PLL power, reduces jitter Quiet A/D, D/A power, improves S/N
Reduced EMI conducted into main power rails Reduced susceptibility to ESD and EFT
Page 32
Summary
Both S21 and Z22 requirements must be considered in design
At HF it is the load side bypass cap network doing the noise suppression work Low inductance on load side critical for high frequency circuits
Use good layout technique & right choice of parts
Dominant pole method provides best overall response, but at highest cost and most parts

Some means of damping is required to prevent transferring MORE NOISE near filter cut-off than w/o the ferrite
