Moreover, this inductor is used in low-noise filtration circuits for the telecommunications, instrumentation, and automotive industries. Additionally, the AIMC-0402HQ-5N8C-T can be used as an inductor in the filter for cellular base stations, smart meters, vehicle navigation systems, and smart phones.Working PrincipleThe basic working principle of a fixed inductor like AIMC-0402HQ-5N8C-T is based on the concept of inductance. Inductance is the property of a circuit element which resists changes in current. This property of inductance is utilized to control the current in the circuit and also to filter out unwanted noise.When current flows through the inductor, a magnetic field is induced around the inductor, and the magnitude of the field is proportional to the rate of change of the current. This magnetic field is known as inductance, and it is measured in units of Henry (H). When current is applied to an inductor, it stores energy in the magnetic field and causes the current to be delayed. Also, when energy is supplied to an inductor, the current lags behind the voltage due to inductance.Due to the above-mentioned properties of inductance, a fixed inductor like AIMC-0402HQ-5N8C-T can be used for various applications. For instance, it can be used in an AC/DC power converter to filter out high-frequency interference and noise. It can also be used to stabilize the current in the power supply, provide power factor correction, and to reduce losses in the power system.
