This convertor provides engineers and students with a fast way to calculate inductive reactance (XL) and admittance (BL) for a given frequency and inductance. It is useful in circuit analysis and RF design.
Uses of the Inductive Convertor
1. Quickly determine XL for AC circuits.
2. Calculate BL for resonant and filter circuits.
3. Assist in designing inductors in RF and audio applications.
4. Validate theoretical calculations for lab work.
Formulas Used
Inductive Reactance: XL = 2 × π × f × L
Inductive Admittance: BL = 1 / XL (expressed in m-mhos)
Explanation
The inductive reactance XL increases linearly with frequency and inductance, showing how the inductor resists AC current. The admittance BL is the reciprocal of reactance, representing how easily current can flow.
Example Calculation
For a frequency of 10 MHz and inductance of 100 nH:
XL = 2 × π × 10,000,000 × 100 × 10-9 ≈ 6.2832 Ω
BL = 1000 / 6.2832 ≈ 159.155 m-mhos
Why this convertor is needed:
1. Saves time compared to manual calculations.
2. Reduces calculation errors for AC circuit analysis.
3. Provides immediate insight into circuit behavior for different frequencies.
4. Supports RF, audio, and general electronics design work.
