DEM46 - Inductor and Transformer Board
Objective:
- To demonstrate the physical shapes and also the internal construction of inductors and transformers.
Apparatus:
- inductor/transformer board
- sectioned inductor
- sectioned transformer
- sectioned variac
Method:
The items are passed to the students for inspection.
This board includes samples of:
- air core high "Q" solenoids
- powdered iron core solenoids and RF transformers
- adjustable inductance iron core solenoids
- ferrite toroid transformers and cores
- PC board printed inductors
- exposed laminations of a power choke
- RF choke
- ferrite beads
- small induction motor
- small audio transformer
- small power transformers with different combinations of tapped turns
The students will be exposed to a few of the inductor types used in industry.
