An inductor, also known as a reactor or coil, is considered as a two-terminal passive electrical component used to store energy in the form of a magnetic field. In its most basic form, it is simply a ...

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 ...

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 ...

Creating a basic inductor on a substrate sounds easy—just metallize the substrate, preferably with a spiral, serpentine, or other pattern. While traditional microchip inductors are relatively large 2D ...
