Inductors are deceptively simple. However, a closer look reveals underlying complexity. How else can you explain the many types of core materials, types of windings, sizes, geometries and wide range ...

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 ...

Core loss in inductors can adversely affect system performance. Yet, predicting core loss is a complicated endeavor, especially in complex structures such as coupled inductors. This article examines ...

We report a fabrication technology for 3D air-core inductors for small footprint and very-high-frequency power conversions. Our process is scalable and highly generic for fabricating inductors with a ...

Wound-toroid inductors have been the mainstay for desktop core voltage regulators (V CORE) for years. Historically, the bulky size, sloppy tolerances and high power losses of these inductors were not ...
