This tutorial will showcase how inductance, capacitance and resistance affect alternating current. A circuit may have the alternating current through it and the voltage across it rising and failing ...

Variable current will generate inductance, capacitance, and their related properties of inductive and capacitive reactance. Although there's no energy loss that directly results from these properties, ...

Inductance in IC interconnects is becoming increasingly significant for designs operating at GHz frequencies. The damping effect of high resistance in narrow signal wires in sub 0.13um designs reduces ...

Last month's column explained that AC current flowing through an inductance reaches its peak amplitude after the voltage. Lagging current is characteristic of an inductive circuit. Capacitive circuits ...

Faraday’s coil confirmed the connection between magnetism and electricity. This image, found on WikiMedia Commons, was originally published in Frederick Bedell’s ...

The rotary inductive sensors utilize resistance inductive capacitance (RLC) measuring technology, rather than a traditional magnetic positioning element—delivering complete immunity to EMC ...

Most proximity sensors use an electromagnetic field to sense the presence of a target metal. But there are times when it's necessary to sense nonmetallic materials such as plastics, liquids, or ...

Megger's CDAX605 is a capacitance and dissipation factor test set to be used with an external power source/generator. Dec. 4, 2012 Megger's CDAX605 is a capacitance and dissipation factor test set to ...
