This video explains how inductors work and how they store energy in a magnetic field when electrical current flows through them. Inductors are passive components used to resist sudden changes in ...

A few years ago, there was a stir about a new fundamental component called a memristor. That wasn’t the first time a new component type was theorized though. In 1948 [Bernard Tellegen] postulated the ...

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 ...

While DC/DC conversion circuitry has matured to the point that there are “cookbook” design aids as well as software to help, selecting the right power inductor is a critical aspect of converter design ...

Inductors range from RF coils used in communications through switchmode inductors used in power supplies and differential and common mode inductors in EMI filters. As switchmode power supply designs ...

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 ...

Core loss in inductors can adversely affect system performance. Yet, predicting core loss is a complicated endeavor, especially in complex structures such as coupled inductors. This article examines ...

Cadence Design Systems announced a major collaboration with Murata Manufacturing, making Murata's inductor and capacitor libraries directly accessible within Cadence's top Electronic Design Automation ...
