  2. Inductor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductor

    For sinusoids, as the voltage across the inductor goes to its maximum value, the current goes to zero, and as the voltage across the inductor goes to zero, the current through it goes to its maximum value. If an inductor is connected to a direct current source with value I via a resistance R (at least the DCR of the inductor), and then the ...

  3. Henry (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_(unit)

    The henry (symbol: H) is the unit of electrical inductance in the International System of Units (SI). [1] If a current of 1 ampere flowing through a coil produces flux linkage of 1 weber turn, that coil has a self-inductance of 1 henry.‌ The unit is named after Joseph Henry (1797–1878), the American scientist who discovered electromagnetic induction independently of and at about the same ...

  4. Inductance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductance

    Mutually coupled inductors can equivalently be represented by a T-circuit of inductors as shown. If the coupling is strong and the inductors are of unequal values then the series inductor on the step-down side may take on a negative value. [32] This can be analyzed as a two port network.

  5. Mesh analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesh_analysis

    Figure 1: Essential meshes of the planar circuit labeled 1, 2, and 3. R 1, R 2, R 3, 1/sC, and sL represent the impedance of the resistors, capacitor, and inductor values in the s-domain. V s and I s are the values of the voltage source and current source, respectively. Mesh analysis (or the mesh current method) is a circuit analysis method for ...

  6. LCR meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LCR_meter

    In the simpler versions of this instrument the impedance was measured internally and converted for display to the corresponding capacitance or inductance value. Readings should be reasonably accurate if the capacitor or inductor device under test does not have a significant resistive component of impedance.

  7. Leakage inductance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leakage_inductance

    Fig. 1 L P σ and L S σ are primary and secondary leakage inductances expressed in terms of inductive coupling coefficient under open-circuited conditions.. The magnetic circuit's flux that does not interlink both windings is the leakage flux corresponding to primary leakage inductance L P σ and secondary leakage inductance L S σ.

  8. Equivalent series inductance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_series_inductance

    An easy way to deal with these inherent inductances in circuit analysis is by using a lumped element model to express each physical component as a combination of an ideal component and a small inductor in series, the inductor having a value equal to the inductance present in the non-ideal, physical device.

  9. Saturation (magnetic) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saturation_(magnetic)

    When the primary current exceeds a certain value, the core is pushed into its saturation region, limiting further increases in secondary current. In a more sophisticated application, saturable core inductors and magnetic amplifiers use a DC current through a separate winding to control an inductor's impedance. Varying the current in the control ...
