Fixed Inductors: 1-2176075-4 Application Field and Working Principle

Fixed inductors, commonly known as chokes, are widely used in power electronic circuits and other electronic systems. They are a basic component of electrical circuits, which responds differently to alternating and direct currents and helps to control the current flow. As an example, the 1-2176075-4 is a surface mount inductor and it is one of the most commonly used inductors in power electronics devices. The following is an overview of its application field and working principles.

Application Field

The 1-2176075-4 surface mount inductor is usually used in design and build of power electronics devices such as DC-DC converters, AC-DC converters, and motor drives. It is also used in making circuits for single- or multi-phase power system. Furthermore, the 1-2176075-4 is useful in making various power filters and voltage stabilizers.

Working Principle

A fixed inductor works by transforming energy from one form to another. It takes electrical energy in the form of direct current and converts it into magnetic energy. This is done by flowing electric current through a coil of wire, known as the inductor. The current produces a magnetic field. When the current flow is stopped, the inductor stores the magnetic energy, which is then converted back into electrical energy in the form of alternating current. This process is known as inductive reactance.

The 1-2176075-4 is made up of high-frequency ferrite cores wound with insulated copper wires. This core material is specifically chosen to ensure that the inductor has a high Q factor (ability to store energy). This Q factor is generally affected by the inductor\'s resistance, capacitance, and inductance. The 1-2176075-4 has both a high Q factor and a high self-resonant frequency, which makes it suitable for use in high-frequency circuitry.

In summary, the 1-2176075-4 is an efficient surface mount inductor with a wide range of applications in power electronics devices. Its working principle is based on inductive reactance, where electrical energy is converted into magnetic energy and stored in the form of a magnetic field. Its high Q factor and self-resonant frequency make it an ideal choice when dealing with high-frequency circuitry.
