  2. Inductor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductor

    Applications range from the use of large inductors in power supplies, which in conjunction with filter capacitors remove ripple which is a multiple of the mains frequency (or the switching frequency for switched-mode power supplies) from the direct current output, to the small inductance of the ferrite bead or torus installed around a cable to ...

  3. Faraday's law of induction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday's_law_of_induction

    Indeed, a galvanometer's needle measured a transient current (which he called a "wave of electricity") on the right side's wire when he connected or disconnected the left side's wire to a battery. [10]: 182–183 This induction was due to the change in magnetic flux that occurred when the battery was connected and disconnected. [7]

  4. Flyback diode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flyback_diode

    The inductor and diode momentarily form a loop or circuit powered by the stored energy in the inductor. This circuit supplies a current path to the inductor to replace the current from the battery, so the inductor current does not drop abruptly and does not develop a high voltage.

    An HVDC thyristor valve tower 16.8 m tall in a hall at Baltic Cable AB in Sweden A battery charger is an example of a piece of power electronics. A PCs power supply is an example of a piece of power electronics, whether inside or outside of the cabinet. Power electronics is the application of electronics to the control and conversion of ...

  6. Electromagnetic induction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_induction

    When the electric current in a loop of wire changes, the changing current creates a changing magnetic field. A second wire in reach of this magnetic field will experience this change in magnetic field as a change in its coupled magnetic flux, . Therefore, an electromotive force is set up in the second loop called the induced emf or transformer emf.

  7. LC circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LC_circuit

    The two-element LC circuit described above is the simplest type of inductor-capacitor network (or LC network). It is also referred to as a second order LC circuit [ 1 ] [ 2 ] to distinguish it from more complicated (higher order) LC networks with more inductors and capacitors.

  8. Electric battery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_battery

    An electric battery is a source of electric power consisting of one or more electrochemical cells with external connections [1] for powering electrical devices. When a battery is supplying power, its positive terminal is the cathode and its negative terminal is the anode. [2] The terminal marked negative is the source of electrons.

  9. Inductive charging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductive_charging

    An increase in high-power inductive charging devices has led to researchers looking into the safety factor of the electromagnetic fields (EMF) put off by larger inductor coils. With the recent interest in the expansion of high power inductive charging with electric cars, an increase in health and safety concerns has arisen.
