Inductance is the link between electric circuits and magnetic fields. Voltage and current sine waves are in-phase when they peak and cross the zero axis at the same time. However, this rarely happens ...

A typical Twin Feeder cable, or more popularly referred to as "Zip Cord", consists of two adjacent conductors separated by insulation, or commonly referred to a "dielectric". For convention we assume ...

This Design Idea shows how tocalculate the inductance of amultilayer air-core coil using only itsdimensions and resistance. If you knowthe dimensions and the number of turnson an air-core coil, you ...

As a fledgling electronics buff I gathered together the usual hodgepodge of spare parts, old TV's and all the other electrical odds and ends that youngsters bitten by that particular bug seems to ...

Electronic circuits are integral parts of nearly all the technological advances being made in our lives today. Television, radio, phones and computers immediately come to mind, but electronics are ...

Have you ever had difficulty explaining the theory of inductance and its impact on an electrical circuit to a coworker or apprentice? A theoretical topic such as this is hard to comprehend but ...

In the absence of expensive test equipment, the circuit in Figure 1 offers a simple and rapid alternative method of measuring inductance. Its applications include verifying that an inductor’s value ...

[Apexys] is performing some experiments with switched-mode power supplies and needed to compare the inductance of the coils he was using. His multimeter doesn’t have an inductance testing function, ...
