In the December 2008 issue of EC&M, we talked about calculating the inductive reactance of conductors that are in close proximity to (or touching) one another. We also noted that the inductance and, ...

Inductance is the link between electric circuits and magnetic fields. Voltage and current sine waves are in-phase when they peak and cross the zero axis at the same time. However, this rarely happens ...

Editor’s note: Jim McLucas, author of the 2010 Design Idea Circuit measures capacitance or inductance wanted to respond to some discussion about using this Design Idea. Please see the following that ...

Providing all the well-known measurement parameters: Impedance |Z|, Admittance |Y|, Phase Angle(?), Reactance(X), Conductance(G), Susceptance(B), Inductance(L ...

This Idea For Design shows how a gyrator circuit can be used to perform certain ac tests on units under test that require a dc-current feed. Designers have long used the gyrator circuit to create a ...
