Inductors, Air Core Inductors And Baluns

While we've explored inductors in the context of lumped element filters previously, this time we're taking a broader look at inductors alongside related components like air core inductors and baluns. Inductors are measured in Henries and are essential for storing energy in magnetic fields and smoothing out signals in various circuits. Discover how air-core inductors, with their low-loss characteristics and immunity to nonlinearities and saturation, play a crucial role in RF circuits.

This article also provides a detailed look at baluns, which are transformers critical for maintaining balance between different types of signals. Explore how baluns ensure optimal performance in various electronic setups, from impedance matching networks to applications in RF systems.
