Fixed Inductors

An inductor or a reactor is a two-terminal electronic component featuring an electric coil used to store energy in its magnetic field. It consists of a core which can be wound round with either an air-cored or iron-cored coil, a device that has the ability to store energy in the form of a magnetic field around the coil. In stereo systems or amplifiers, inductors are used to reduce noise and increase the stability of the system. In power supplies, they are used to provide a high voltage output and reduce the ripple. In microwave ovens, inductors are used to reduce the current noise and to minimize the energy consumption.

Working Principle

The working principle of the MHQ1005P15NHTD25 is based on the behavior of an inductor in an electric field. As current passes through an inductor, a magnetic field is created that opposes the flow of current. This creates an inductive reactance, which is measured in ohms (resistance). This reactance is related to the amount of current that an inductor will support. The amount of inductance is determined by the number of turns in the coil, the core material, and the distance between the coils. The MHQ1005P15NHTD25 has a 15nH inductance, which is suitable for high-frequency circuitry.
