Definitions And Measurement Techniques For Transformers And Inductors

Focus:

A one-page glossary defines the following magnetics-related terms:Open Circuit Inductance (OCL), Pulse Inductance (Lp), ET Volt-Microsecond Constant, Droop, Turns Ratio, Rise Time (tr), Fall Time (tf), Leakage Inductance (Le), and Interwinding Capacity (Cw/w). It also describes a technique for determining pulse inductance by measuring magnetizing current.

What you’ll learn:

• How to understand the meaning of magnetics-related terminology
• How to measure pulse inductance of a transformer
