When both of the inductor terminals are respectively connected to each terminal of the other inductor or inductors, they are said to be in parallel connection. The total inductance is less than any ...

Last month's column covered the behavior of electrical components connected in series and demonstrated that when a voltage is applied across a series circuit, the current through each component is the ...

Situation: You’re an IT person new to radio broadcast engineering and are given the keys to an AM transmitter site. The manager says to go out and get familiar with the equipment. The site reminds you ...

For RF inductor selection, José Martos and Heinz Zenkner stress the importance of evaluating inductance, natural resonant frequency, quality, DC resistance and rated current for high-frequency ...

This Power Tip shows you how to do a quick conversion of parallel-to-series complex impedances (and vice versa). It also shows that a graphical representation of this transformation as a function of ...

To minimize electrical noise levels, the 4900 series surface-mount inductors integrate an EMI shield as a standard feature. The inductors employ a dual winding in a bobbin format with a 1:1 winding ...

It’s often necessary to connect point-of- load (POL) dc/dc power supply modules in parallel to get a sufficiently high-current output for applications such as test instruments, blade servers, and so ...

The LTM4644 integrates four separate constant frequency controlled on-time valley current-mode regulators, power MOSFETs, inductors, and other supporting discrete components (Fig. 1). Each of the four ...
