An inductor is a passive electronic component which is capable of storing electrical energy in the form of magnetic energy. Basically, it uses a conductor that is wound into a coil, and when electricity flows into the coil from the left to the right, this will...

Flux walking is an issue in full-bridge, half-bridge and push-pull transformers….Flux walking (flux stair casing) is an accumulation of flux in the core due to a non-zero average of the applied voltage over each period of time. This causes the flux to “staircase”...

A buck-boost converter is used to convert a switched DC voltage of some value to another DC voltage of some fixed value. They are primarily used in applications where you need some fixed DC output voltage even if your DC input voltage is changing. For example, in...

WHAT IS INDUCTANCE and INDUCTORS? “Inductance is the property of an electrical conductor by which a change in current through it induces an electromotive force in both the conductor itself and in any nearby conductors by mutual inductance.” MATHEMATICALLY THIS IS...
