Advanced semiconductor technology allows an increasing number of transistors to be integrated onto ever-smaller silicon chips. This increases the power density, however, and presents power-management ...

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 ...

Deemed a first, the MAX9730 2.4W, single-supply, mono Class G speaker amplifier eliminates the boost converter and large inductor common to Class AB or Class D amps while achieving twice the output ...

We report a fabrication technology for 3D air-core inductors for small footprint and very-high-frequency power conversions. Our process is scalable and highly generic for fabricating inductors with a ...

Saelig has introduced the ed-k DPG Power Choke Tester family – a series of measurement instruments for inductive power components, using currents up to 4kA and pulse energy up to 7.7kJ. The DPG series ...

When external current to an inductor is suddenly cut off, the inductor responds by temporarily producing a large EMF that can light a light bulb. In this way, a 6 V battery can momentarily illuminate ...
