Inductor's Equivalent Circuit Yields True Picture of Losses

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 ...

Integrated Telecom Circuit

The ITC series integrates the major components found in a typical Data Access Arrangement (DAA), in a 16 lead SOIC package. As highlighted in Figure 1, the 1-Form-A MOSFET SSR, Darlington transistor, ...

Single-inductor circuit generates bipolar supply voltages

Many circuit techniques can generate bipolar supply voltages from a single positive voltage, but most of them require multiple inductors. In Figure 1, a single inductor and three Schottky diodes ...

Performing In-Circuit Inductor and Transformer Measurements in SMPS (.PDF Download)

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 ...

Metal Detection Using An Inductor Instead Of A Clock Crystal.

This project from a few years back is an interesting take on a metal detector. Instead of building a detection circuit, [Bruno Gavand] replaced the external clock crystal with an inductor. Here you ...
