Abstract
An interconnection cable for audio frequency high fidelity applications comprises a first and a second conductor which are disposed close to one another and connected at the ends, wherein the second conductor has an electrical length which is a least three times longer than the first conductor. The second conductor is helically wound about the first conductor. A third conductor may be included in the space within the helical winding, and in one embodiment may be connected at the ends of the first and second conductor. In another embodiment, the third conductor may be insulated from the first conductor and the second conductor for signal return.
Claims11
An interconnection cable for audio frequency high fidelity applications for carrying a signal comprising:
- a first conductor;
- a second conductor disposed helically surrounding said first conductor and insulated from said first conductor;
- said first conductor and said second conductor each having first ends electrically connected one another at a signal source and second ends electrically connected to one another at a load;
- and
- said second conductor having a physical length substantially longer than said first conductor such that signal length of said second conductor is substantially greater than signal length of said first conductor in order to minimize lengthwise end to end resonance.
The cable according to claim wherein said second conductor has an electrical signal length which is at least 3 times longer than said first conductor.
