Fixed Inductors

The LBC2016T101K is an High Current Inductor rated for 10A that opposes changes in current. It is often used in switching regulators and for the termination of ground loops as it suppresses high-frequency noise. The LBC2016T101K is a general purpose inductor and as such can be found in a variety of different applications.

Electrically, an inductor is a two-terminal passive element that is capable of storing energy in the form of a magnetic field. The electrical current flowing through an inductor produces a magnetic field around the component, and the strength of the magnetic field is proportional to the strength of the current. An inductor is traditionally represented as a coil of wire, and the inductance (L) is expressed in Henries.

For the LBC2016T101K, the inductance is 102nH and its rated direct current (DC) current is 10A. The inductor has a rated saturation current (Irms) of 16A, and a rated AC (alternating current) current of 6A. The winding thickness is 0.4mm, the wire diameter is 0.12mm, and the maximum height is 9.6mm.

The LBC2016T101K inductor has a great range of applications, including power supplies, DC-DC converters, switching regulators, filters, and bypass circuits. It can also be used as a regulator to filter and reduce noise generated in digital circuits. The inductor has the ability to reduce electrical noise and induce voltage, which helps reduce electrical interference.

The principle of operation for the LBC2016T101K inductor is relatively simple. The inductor works by utilizing the properties of a magnetic field in order to oppose changes in current. When current is applied to the inductor, a magnetic field is generated around the component that opposes changes in the applied current. This creates a back EMF (electromotive force) that works to oppose the change in current.

Furthermore, the greater the current through the inductor, the stronger the opposing magnetic field. This means that the inductor has an electrical property known as inductance, which can be measured in henries and allows for the control and regulation of electrical current. As such, the inductor is able to perform a wide range of tasks, to filter out high frequency noise, stabilize voltage, and adjust current in various applications.
