The present invention provides magnetic structure, particularly an isolation transformer, which includes a shield to prevent radiation of electromagnetic interference ("EMI"). The magnetic structure includes a support structure, or bobbin, on which are mounted windings formed from electrical conductors. The windings are electrically connected to termination points, which provide the electrical interconnections for the magnetic structure. A magnetic core can be included in the support structure to provide optimal magnetic properties to the device. An EMI shield formed from a metallic foil such as copper is wrapped around the winding to prevent the radiation of EMI. The EMI shield is connected to a shield pin in the support structure by a conductive strap such that the shield pin is electrically connectable to a fixed potential through a safety rated capacitor to provide a low impedance path for currents induced in the EMI shield. The magnetic structure is particularly useful as an isolation transformer in an isolated power supply.
An apparatus for improving reception sensitivity of a public wave receiver includes power devices formed in a power supply of the public wave receiver, and a shielding plate for shielding noise generated by the power devices. A signal line for connecting an antenna used for the public wave receiver to a public wave receiver main body and a ground line are formed coaxially to each other by a shield layer.
