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 ...

Inductance is the link between electric circuits and magnetic fields. Voltage and current sine waves are in-phase when they peak and cross the zero axis at the same time. However, this rarely happens ...

A typical Twin Feeder cable, or more popularly referred to as "Zip Cord", consists of two adjacent conductors separated by insulation, or commonly referred to a "dielectric". For convention we assume ...

[Prof MAD] runs us through The Hidden Power of Inductors — Why Coils Resist Change. The less often used of the passive components, the humble and mysterious inductor is the subject of this video. The ...

Mobile-phone chargers and other devices could become much smaller after an all-RIKEN team of physicists successfully shrunk an electrical component known as an inductor to microscale dimensions using ...

A basic building block of modern technology, inductors are everywhere: cellphones, laptops, radios, televisions, cars. And surprisingly, they are essentially the same today as in 1831, when they were ...

Spoiler summary: The loop inductance of a circular loop is about 25nH per inch of circumference. Remember: before you start using rules of thumb, be sure to read the Rule of Thumb #0: Use rules of ...
