This converter makes it possible to transform a given inductance and a frequency into its inductive reactance X L and its inductive admittance B L. It is useful for electronics and RF engineers to analyze the behavior of inductive coils and circuits.
Formula
X L = 2π × F × L
B L = 1000 / X L
Explanation of the formula
The inductive reactance X L represents the opposition of an inductance to the passage of alternating current and depends on the frequency F and the inductance L. The higher the frequency or the inductance, the more X L increases.
The inductive admittance B L is the reciprocal of X L , adjusted here with a factor of 1000 to correspond to m-mhos units. It makes it possible to quantify the ease with which the alternating current passes through the inductor.
Uses
- Analyze and size LC circuits and RF filters.
- Easily convert inductance and frequency values to reactance and admittance for quick calculations.
- Assist in the design of passive components and the optimization of impedance networks.
- Evaluate the behavior of an inductor in variable frequency systems.
