SH150T-0.25-256

A fixed inductor is an electric component, primarily a coil, wound around a core material with an insulated wire. It is used in electrical systems to produce a magnetic field. The inductor stores energy in the form of magnetic field that, when a current passes through it, creates an electromotive force, also known as self-induction, that acts to oppose any changes in the current. When the current stops flowing, the magnetic field that had been created dissipates, collapsing and releasing the energy and causing a current in the opposite direction to the original flow.

The SH150T-0.25-256 model of fixed inductor is commonly used in audio systems and electronic circuits. It can also be used in switching power supplies, such as those found in office machines, computers and home electronics. As the part name implies, it has a rated inductance of 0.25uH, with a tolerance of ±20%, and is able to handle a maximum power of about 150W.

The working principle of any inductor is based on Faraday’s law of induction, which states that a changing magnetic field induces an electric current in a nearby conductive loop. This means that when a current flows through the inductor, a magnetic field is created around it. This field is then sensed by the nearby conductive loop and induces a current into it, acting as an opposition to the current flowing through the inductor. The amount of opposition determines the impedance of the inductor.

The SH150T-0.25-256 fixed inductor is composed of a core wound with insulated wire. The core is composed of a ferromagnetic material, like ferrite, powdered iron, or a laminate mixture. This is what allows it to store energy in a magnetic field. The wire is wound around this core to create the coil that generates and stores the magnetic field. The combination of the core material and winding creates an inductance that is designed to resonant at the frequency at which the inductor is intended to operate.

The SH150T-0.25-256 fixed inductor is used in a variety of applications. It is often used in the output stages of amplifiers, where it is placed in series with the speaker. This creates a form of low-pass filter that helps keep signals calm and free from distortion. In switching power supplies, the inductor is used to control the amount of current that flows from the power supply to the load, providing a stable, low-noise power source.
