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 ...

For CPU VRM designs, a copper alloy features a more constant dc resistance over temperature than a traditional copper inductor, with little in the way of performance tradeoffs. Current sensing is a ...

SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Pulse Electronics Power BU, a leading provider of power magnetics components, expands upon its broad line-up of power inductors with the new PA434X series molded inductors.

I hope that you are never in a situation in which you are in danger from a downed, but live, power line. However, if that ever happens, the recommended safety procedure is to move away with tiny, ...

For decades, power-supply designers have set their inductor ripple current to somewhere between 20% and 40% of their power supply’s full rated output current. This is considered a good starting point ...
