Coil Or Inductor

Coil “OR” Inductor

Working of Inductors

I Inductors are used in many analog circuits and are also used along with capacitors for forming filter circuits and thus signal processing. They are also used in Switched Mode Power Supplies (SMPS), oscillators, transmitters, receivers, voltage regulators and also for over voltage protection.

What is an Inductor?

An Inductor, also known as a reactor is simply a coil of wire, which has many electrical properties when subjected to a magnetic field. When an electric current is passed through it, a magnetic field is created. This magnetic field helps to store the electric current for a short time, even if the supply is removed. When the magnetic field around the coil collapses, the electric current also falls off.
