Common Mode Choke

    Common Mode Chokes are a type of inductor that specialize in simultaneously “choking” high frequencies and passing low frequencies in an electrical circuit. What differentiates common mode chokes from other types of chokes is that it is used when common-mode signals are implemented.           This type of electrical component […]

Toroidal Inductors and Transformers

Toroidal transformers and inductors are one of the most widely utilized electrical components because of its abundance of desired qualities. These components have an innate capability to increase efficiency, diminish distortion and fringing from occurring, and improve electrical performance due to the windings being in a closed magnetic field and short. Another advantage comes from […]
