What makes inductors so important?

Inductors play a key role in controlling current and storing energy in electronic circuits. This video explains how they use ...
Inductors control electric current by using magnetic fields to resist sudden changes. This video explains how a simple coil ...
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 ...
In switched-mode power supplies (SMPS), magnetic components, namely inductors and transformers, play critical roles. Much of the SMPS design process relies on component specifications and simulation ...
With their ability to resist changes in current, inductors are one of the basic but fundamental components used in electronics where current and voltage change with time. This tutorial provides an ...
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 ...
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 ...
