PTKM50-59

PTKM50-59 in the Electrical Circuit

In the electrical circuit, PTKM50-59 fixed inductors can be used in a number of ways. The most common is as a choke coil, which blocks the AC component of a signal while allowing the DC component to pass. This prevents disturbances in the current and voltage from interfering with sensitive electronic circuits. PTKM50-59 inductors can also be used in transformers to increase or decrease the voltage of an alternating current. This is done by transferring energy between two circuits with different frequencies. By adjusting the number of turns, the inductance, and the size of the inductor, the voltage of the alternating current can be controlled.

The optional core material is also important, as it affects the inductance and the saturation current of the inductor. Soft ferrite cores provide the highest inductance per volume, and have a sinking current rating that is moderately high. Iron cores, on the other hand, are best when high saturation currents and low inductance are desired. Finally, Ferrite and steel alloy cores provide very low inductances and are often used in transformers and high power use applications.
