This video explains the function of inductors and how they store energy in a magnetic field when current flows through them. Inductors are essential passive components used to manage current changes ...

Active inductors have emerged as a transformative component in CMOS radio frequency (RF) circuit design, effectively replacing traditional passive inductors with active semiconductor networks. By ...

When current flows through a conductor it becomes an inductor, when there is an inductor there is an electromagnetic field (EM). This can cause a variety of issues during PCB layout if you don’t plan ...

Input current for a passive PFC circuit is insensitive to changes in the output ripple - so it requires a smaller inductance than previous circuits. Mangesh Borage, Sunil Tiwari, and S. Kotaiah, ...

The new PG0083 series of low-profile, surface-mount power inductors are designed for high-density, high-power circuits typically run at high temperatures. Sporting a profile of just 4.2 mm max., the ...

Fullterton, Calif. – TT Electronics' BI Technologies Magnetic Components division has launched a series of surface-mount, micropower inductors for use in portable products and other applications where ...

ALPS Green Devices has developed the “GLCLK Series” and “GLCLM Series” Liqualloy Power Inductors, suitable for power supply circuits of displays for smartphones and other compact mobile devices, such ...

TT Electronics has introduced a range of coupled inductors with high temperature rating and AECQ200 certification for use in automotive power converter applications. The HA78D series shielded SMD ...

Over the past century, electronic engineering has improved massively. In the 1920s, a state-of-the-art AM radio contained several vacuum tubes, a few enormous inductors, capacitors and resistors, ...

Last month's column covered the behavior of electrical components connected in series and demonstrated that when a voltage is applied across a series circuit, the current through each component is the ...
