    I recently started winding my own toroids for some low-power ham radio kits. It's worth mentioning that even on a high-end RF-rated toroid (e.g. type 43 ferrite) the proximity of turns can make a pretty big difference in the final inductance; if they're all bunched together, you get more inductance but lower efficiency, and if they're evenly spread out, the inductance is lower but the efficiency is higher. Not having a component tester, though, I had to come up with an alternate way to test inductances; the simplest way is to build a resonant circuit with a known-value (measured) capacitor and see what frequency it resonates at. With a decent oscilloscope, this should be a lot more accurate than a component tester.

    Magnet wire insulated with a nylon/polyester blend can be soldered without stripping. Lots of magnet wire cannot and has to be mechanically stripped or striped in a "salt pot" stripper at very high temperature. One of my clients, which made large iron core transformers in house, used an oxyacetylene torch. If you set the flame to oxidizing (more oxygen than needed for the acetylene) and put the wire in the oxidizing part of the flame, the insulation is cleanly stripped. You can't do this with something like a propane torch. It will simply burn the insulation leaving a mess that still has to be removed mechanically, though more easily than unburned insulation. I used to buy magnet wire from a supplier to motor rewinding shops. They didn't stock the stuff with solder-through insulation because it isn't robust enough for industrial motors.

    One thing that you can also use for the winding of the inductor is "layered" enameled copper wire, it can handle more current at higher frequencies * layered enameled copper wire just means multiple enameled copper wires put side-by-side (aka in parallel) and then wrapped around the core; only electrically connected at the ends. Hope this helps!

    Layers in an inductor are not paralleled wires. They are physical layers, one on top of another. This is important because the number of layers influences the AC losses in the winding due to proximity effect. Each layer _could_ be made of paralleled strands.

    Don’t need to overkill catch diodes. When sizing catch diodes, remember that current doesn’t increase with fly back. The inductor does what is needed to keep the previous current flowing briefly, however much voltage it takes to do that. So if your 70mA relay coil is switched off, it will continue to pass that 70mA briefly. A 1N4148 catch diode will handle that easily! And with your power inductor at 1A, a IN4001 will do the job just fine.

    Excellent explanation. I mainly deal with AC, but your clarification of DC circuits is massively helpful. Small point of contention though regarding definitions, an inductor I believe doesn't so much "resist" current so much as "impede" it. The definition and distinction I was taught is that resistance is work done that produces heat, whereas impedance doesn't. But then I guess no matter the length of copper wire you are using it will have some inherent resistance to it. Great video!

    I really enjoyed your flyback to a spring example! I need to find out the opposite of what you showed after that, however... I need to figure out how to best protect any other circuitry while, at the same time, getting the highest possible flyback voltage. It doesn't help that my limited amount of electronics background is close to 50 years old ~ with a LOT of "water under the bridge" during that time... (I'm having to go back & start over from scratch via youtube, etc.) Fortunately, I DO remember enough to have a healthy respect for HV & how to discharge scavenged flybacks, capacitors, & condensers without "knocking myself into the next county ~ if not the next life..." I'm wanting to set up at least 3, horizontal shaft, Briggs & Stratton 4 stroke motors with to run off of HV produced HHO on demand. These motors, in turn, would spin "smart drive" stator/rotor motors, rewired to be generators, with a bit of the output getting diverted to charge the flyback system for HV/LC... Any suggestions on how to protect the other circuitry withOUT reducing the flyback voltage???

    In RF parlance, especially in the amplifier arena, capacitors and inductors are labeled as tank blocking capacitors which pass RF current and block DC, while the plate chokes block RF current and pass DC, unless they're making up the tuned resonant tank circuit, where you want the cap to charge and discharge, and the inductor to ring, forming the flywheel effect in class B and C amplifiers. Another choke is used off the load capacitor to ground, which is for safety if the plate cap fails, connecting the HV to the tank. This, of course, blows the fuse before allowing HV into the antenna circuit. However, that choke's ringing causes HV to appear across the tuning and load cap's plates, and they have to be rated for that. In the plate power circuit of tube amps, the cap passes the anode's RF to the tank circuit while blocking HV DC, and the RF plate choke blocks the RF from entering the HV power supply. It's like using two types of check valves in a hydraulic circuit, and very similar to a diode's action.

    Wow you make this sound so easy but electronics is so hard for me to really grasp. I’m still really lost but you did make a lot of sense and this is such a great channel I subscribed and have been watching your videos nonstop. So if inductors have no effect on DC power is it a waste to put one after the capacitor in series with the output. I am going to rectify a welder from AC to DC. Some videos I see people putting an inductor last in the circuit and some people just do the rectifier and capacitor without an inductor. Basically if I understand you correctly if the circuit has been rectified to DC and then run through a capacitor then the inductor isn’t doing anything at the output. I hope this question makes sense because I’d like to hear your thoughts. Thanks

    JLPCB has got to be pretty happy with your approach on this one! My only complaint, is the black hole comment! Haha, black holes are rubbish ! Great video!

    From the coil32 page......Another case is the inductor in the switching power supply. The commonly used ferrites have a relatively low value of saturation flux density (about 0.3 T), so in the power switching circuit the inductor is switched between the maximum value of the field when it almost gets a saturation and zero-field value, when it is demagnetized to a value of residual induction (curve [4]). As we can see the slope of the major axis of the ellipse 4 is much smaller than that of the ellipse 3. In other words, the magnetic permeability of the core in this mode is greatly reduced. The situation becomes worse if the choke core has DC bias (curve [5]). The major hysteresis loop of the real ferrite is more rectangular than on our schematic image and, in the end, the dynamic magnetic permeability of the power inductor on a ferrite ring falls to several units. As if there is no the ferrite! In the end, the inductive reactance of the inductor decreases, the current increases dramatically (which results in an even larger decrease in µ!), the key transistor heats up and burnout. The calculations of Coil32 for this choke give an absolutely wrong result. Because, we used to calculate the value of initial magnetic permeability, and in a real circuit, the permeability is two to three orders smaller. You will get the same situation if you will measure the relative permeability of the toroid by the trial winding. The solution is to use a ferrite core with the interrupted magnetic circuit. In the case of the ferrite ring, it is necessary to break it in half and then glue that two half with the non-magnetic gap. The major hysteresis loop of such a core becomes more sloping [2], the residual induction is much less [B'r], the effective magnetic permeability is also less than that of the core without a gap. However, the curve of magnetization [6] shows that the dynamic magnetic permeability of this inductor is much higher than that of similar, but with a core without a gap. It has permeability about 50..100. Coil32 also is unable to calculate this choke, since it does not take into account the non-magnetic gap. Another solution is the use of special rings for the power supply as powdered iron toroids (not ferrite). Such toroids can be found in pulse power supply units and motherboards of computers. The non-magnetic "gap" in such ring is distributed along its length. Conclusion. The Coil32 program calculates only low-current ferrite toroid coil working in low magnetic fields. For the power chokes calculation, it is necessary to use a completely different methodology.

    A small point to remember. The video showed a high voltage when no flyback diode is present and a small flyback voltage when a diode is connected. The instructor also mentioned the flyback voltage can be very high when a diode is connected. This is true because the voltage across the inductor multiplied by the current flowing will be converted to a very high voltage at low current with no diode or a very low voltage and high current with a diode. The value of each multiplication will be the same - the inductor does not create or destroy any energy. It just converts it to one of two results. That's why the diode has to be a high current carrying type for large inductors. When the inductor is turned OFF instantly, the collapse is immediate and the result is the greatest. In other words, the flyback voltage spike is the greatest or the current through the flyback diode will the highest (for a fraction of a second). This is the first video to touch on this point.

    With a diode connected across an inductor whose supply has been interrupted, said inductor's current wants to continue at the SAME level, slowly decaying as the coil and diode resistance convert a part of the energy into heat, until the current decays to zero. Suggest you simulate with a free excellent simulator, such as LTSpice. Or I can send you a simulation offline.

    I built a 60 watt transistor stereo from Heath kit back in the day. I would bridge a 47 mf Disc capacitor across each speaker output To keep from hearing my neighbour talking on his CB radio through my speakers, It worked!

    Just a grammar tip to help polish the old image: Apostrophe S after a noun denotes possession. "Inductor's" implies there's something that belongs to said inductor. For plural, just drop the apostrophe. "Inductors". You also don't need to capitalize after the ampersand. Best of luck to you
