Title: What Is The Difference Between Inductors And Transformers - Miracle Electronics
1What Is The Difference Between Inductors And
Transformers Miracle Electronics
Although for a layman, transformers and inductors
seem to be the same in appearance and
construction, but those in the field dealing with
these equipment know that the two devices are
similar, but not the same. They differ in
applications, and also have their own unique
design and construction. This blog will give you
detailed information about these differences so
that you are no more in the belief of the myth
of both transformers and inductors being the
same. After reading the blog, when you
understand the difference between the two, and
decide on using any one of them for your
application, you can approach Miracle
Electronics, the leading transformer and
inductor coil manufacturer in India, who can
serve almost every electronic purpose for your
varied applications.
Inductors Inductors are passive tow-terminal
electrical components that have electrical
conducting wires wound into a coil. When current
flows through an inductor, it temporarily stores
the energy in the coils magnetic field and when
the current flowing through is altered,
voltage is created. The magnetic core around
which the wire is wound is made up of iron or
ferrite that increases the magnetic field and
creates inductance. The inductance of an inductor
can be calculated as the ratio of voltage to
the rate of current change and is depicted
in the units of Henry (H).
2Inductors range from 1H to 10H in value.
Inductors are used in AC electronic equipment to
block AC while allowing DC to pass. Transformers
Transformers consist of two coils of insulated
wires that are wound around an iron core. One
coil, called the primary, is connected to an
input source of AC that produces constantly
varying magnetic field around the coil, which in
turn produces an AC in the other coil, known as
the secondary, which is connected to a separate
electric circuit to give an output. The ratio of
the number of turns in the primary to the number
of turns in the secondary, which is known as
the turns ratio, determines the ratio of
voltages in the two coils. Transformers with more
turns in the secondary as compared to primary
are step-up transformers and those with more
turns in the primary are step-down transformers.
The ratio of the amperage or electric current
strength in the two coils is inversely
proportional to the ratio of the voltages. This
makes the electric power (voltage x amperage)
same in both the coils. At Miracle Electronics,
the best transformer and inductor coil
manufacturer in India, you get all sorts of
transformers and inductors for your applications.
The transformers manufactured include power,
toroidal, three phase, SMPS, UI, EI, medical
isolation, audio output, and audio line
matching. Additionally, you can get the
best-in-class inductors that have the highest
common mode impedance over the widest frequency
range. These inductors have no air gap, superior
quality wiring, low electromagnetic radiation,
and low noise production. You can use these
inductors for any application requiring a high DC
current bias like SMPS.
