The L-network is a simple inductor-capacitor (LC) circuit that can be used to match a wide range of impedances in RF circuits. Any RF circuit application covering a narrow frequency ...

Fig. 3: Capacitors in series. You can also replace one capacitor by putting two capacitors in parallel as shown in Fig. 4. In this case, a .0015 mfd capacitor can be replaced by a .001 mfd and a .0005 ...

The inductor's equivalent circuit also affects the measured inductance, which occurs in all types of coils. The change of inductance as a result of the equivalent circuit is called apparent ...

In practical tuning circuits, the resistance in the capacitive branch is negligible, but the inductive branch has a considerable resistance due to the windings of the inductor. For the circuit shown ...

Inductors do this by storing energy in the flux surrounding the conductor. Alternatively capacitors resist a change in voltage (again by storing energy) and can act as a high pass filter when in ...

A buck converter is a DC-DC power device that efficiently steps down a voltage to a lower level. It uses an inductor, ...

In such cases, the best cost and space saving approach for decoupling is to use a filter with combination of a small inductor and capacitors, see Figure 7. The inductor in the filter circuit increases ...

Functional electrical circuits can be made by further integration, e.g., connecting a solenoid inductor and a parallel-plate capacitor to form a LC-resonant tank, as shown in Figure 1c.

Scientists have discovered a new component of circuitry. For centuries, we thought circuits only had three basic parts: inductors, capacitors, and resistors. But over the last 20 years, scientists ...
