What is a choke?

An attenuating choke is an inductor that is tuned to react at certain radio frequencies, since it attenuates, or "chokes" frequencies above a particular threshold. Tuning is often accomplished with a movable magnetic core. A choke positioned around high-current wires can help attenuate harmful harmonics and protect surrounding electronic equipment.
