Electrical ratings are interdependent. The current through a component depends on the applied voltage (waveform and duty cycle) and the component impedance. The impedance of a component depends on the ...

[Kalle] tipped us about a quick project he made over a couple of evenings: an inductor saturation current tester. All the components used for it were salvaged from a beefy telecom power supply, which ...

Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. has released two new automotive-grade IHTH high-current, high-temperature, through-hole inductors in the compact 1500 case size. These devices can replace larger and more ...

Why Coils Resist Change. The less often used of the passive components, the humble and mysterious inductor is the subject of ...

This video/article is part of Dostal's Designs series in Ideas for Design and the TechXchange: Power Supply Design. You can also post a question. Members can download ...

Specify current ripple ratio to optimize a power supply , relying on extrapolation rather than intuition to choose the right off-the-shelf inductor for your application. An inductor is designed for ...
