Fixed Inductors

Fixed inductors, also known as chokes, are passive two-terminal electronic components. They are used to store energy in a magnetic field and to provide electrical isolation between different circuits.

79F180K Application Field and Working Principle

79F180K is a fixed inductor commonly used in DC/DC converters and switching regulators. It is designed to provide inductive energy to transform DC input voltages in DC/DC converter applications. The 79F180K is a fully shielded, non-polarized, high current, low-profile, surface mount device.

The 79F180K works by generating a magnetic field around an iron core that increases the inductance of the device. The magnetic field is generated when current flows through the wire wound inductor. As the current increases, the magnetic field around the inductor increases, thus increasing the inductance of the device.

The 79F180K can be used in both DC/DC converter and switching regulator applications. In DC/DC converter applications, the inductor works by storing energy in its magnetic field and providing electrical isolation between different circuits. In switching regulator applications, the inductor works to reduce the output voltage ripple and provide a smoother power delivery.

The 79F180K is a great choice for a wide range of DC/DC and switching regulator applications, due to its low profile, high current, non-polarized, and fully shielded design.
