You can make all sorts of different types of inductors, but the most common type is cylindrical coil of wire---a solenoid. When current runs through the first loop, it creates a magnetic field that ...

If you are a novice electronic constructor, you will become familiar with common electronic components. Resistors, capacitors, transistors, diodes, LEDs, integrated circuits. These are the fodder for ...

How many datasheets have we, as engineers, reviewed that included all of the data we need? If your experiences are like mine, very few times if at all. To compound the problem, the data listed ...

In the race for ever-improving technology, there are two related technical capabilities that drive our world forward: speed and size. These are related, as the smaller a device is, the less distance ...

In high-frequency analog circuits and signal processing in applications such as cell phones, RFID, test equipment, GPSs, radar, Wi-Fi, and satellite radios, the inductor is one of the most important ...

Could the inductor be redesigned in a fundamentally new way? Yes, according to new work by researchers in the US, Japan and China who have made the first high-performance inductors from intercalated ...

Question: How do you measure inductor current? Answer: Switched-mode power supplies commonly use inductors to temporarily store energy. In the evaluation of these power supplies, it’s often useful to ...
