Inductors are typically used as energy storage devices in switched-mode power devices to produce DC current. The inductor, which stores energy, supplies energy to the circuit to maintain current flow during “off” switching periods, thus enabling topographies where output voltage exceeds input voltage.
Where are inductors used in everyday life?
Inductors are primarily used in electrical power and electronic devices for these major purposes:
- Choking, blocking, attenuating, or filtering/smoothing high frequency noise in electrical circuits.
- Storing and transferring energy in power converters (dc-dc or ac-dc)
What are examples of inductors?
Applications of inductors can be seen in the following
- Tuning circuits.
- Sensors.
- Store energy in a device.
- Induction motors.
- Transformers.
- Filters.
- Chokes.
- Ferrite beads.
