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 ...

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 ...

Constrained by battery capacity, notebook manufacturers seek more efficient as well as lower-priced components for their designs. Active and passive devices used on VRMs (voltage regulator modules) ...

Inductors of all types — whether discrete, chip, bead or coil — are trying to keep pace with the demands of modern power-supply designs by using diverse forms and materials, such as thin films, ...

For the PDF version of this article, click here. In all switching regulators, the inductor is used as an energy storage device. When the semiconductor switch is on, the current in the inductor ramps ...

Amateur Radio as a hobby has a long history of encouraging experimentation using whatever one might have on hand. When [Tom Essenpreis] wanted to use his 14 MHz antenna outside of its designed ...

Let’s say you’re stranded on a desert island and want to get the news from the outside world. You’ll have to build your own crystal radio, of course, but your parts bin is nowhere to be found and Digi ...

TOKYO, May 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- TAIYO YUDEN CO., LTD. has commercialized the new LCQPB series of wire-wound ferrite power inductors, which have AEC-Q200 qualification for automotive passive ...

Researchers at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign have devised a method of combining capacitors and inductors in a tiny, 3D rolled membrane. This will save space in the electronic filters ...
