This application note covers the steps required in choosing the inductor and to calculate the value used in buck regulator IC circuits. Switching regulators are used in a variety of applications to ...

Optimizing PFC circuits for a particular application is easily performed with the PL Product, which is a user driven software for design engineers. It helps identify and select PFC inductors over a ...

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 ...

Excessive use of electricity and poor efficiencies are no longer acceptable. Eliminating poor power factor will result in increasing electrical efficiencies and will reduce the overall use of ...

OBJECTIVE: You will wind (and test) your own inductor, which you will also use in the AM radio project in a subsequent lab. You will also investigate the properties of capacitors by making a simple ...
