Inductors perform a number of different styles of function
within a circuit. Some types can be used for filtering and removing spikes on
power lines, others are used within high performance filters. Others may be
used within oscillators, and there are many other areas where inductors can be
used.
As a result of this, there are many different types of
inductor that can be obtained. Size, frequency, current, value, and many other
factors means that there is a whole host of different types and forms of
inductor.
Inductors are normally made in the form of a coil. The reason
for this is that the magnetic field is linked between the windings and builds
up. As such an inductor with a sufficiently large inductance can be built up
more easily.
As the permeability of the medium in which the coil is
located has a major effect on the inductance, a core running down the center of
the coil is often used.
Cores such as iron, ferrite and other magnetic materials are
used. These all significantly increase the level of inductance that can be
obtained, but care has to be taken in the choice of core to ensure its
performance is suitable for the power level, frequency and general application
of the inductor.
