When choosing a conductor for use in an electronic circuit, there are several important properties that may need to be considered. The wire thickness and resistivity determines the current carrying ...

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 ...

Wound-toroid inductors have been the mainstay for desktop core voltage regulators (V CORE) for years. Historically, the bulky size, sloppy tolerances and high power losses of these inductors were not ...

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 ...
