In some applications, magnetic components are difficult to characterize when steady-state current is flowing. Bridges having the necessary dc capability are expensive. If you don't need extreme ...

Inductors and transformers serve key roles in switch-mode power supplies. Ensuring they perform as expected requires thorough in-circuit measurements performed under operating conditions. Here’s what ...

Thoughtful reader Raymond Laagel of Mulhouse, France sent a note with a proof of a Design Idea we published back in 2010. The DI was called Circuit measures capacitance or inductance, and it was by ...

DURING the last thirty years a very large number of papers has been published on alternating-current bridge methods of measuring inductance and capacity. For adjusting apparatus in radio work an ...

MANY problems in connexion with obtaining formulae for the inductance and capacity of various conductors and systems of conductors have recently been solved. The Calculation and Measurement of ...

Most professionals wouldn’t consider using such a DMM because they require better accuracy, resolution, safety, and durability. Also, many higher performance meters include an extensive list of ...
