About This Tool
This Inductance Converter is a tool for electrical engineers, physicists, and electronics hobbyists. It converts units of inductance, which is the property of an electrical conductor to oppose a change in the electric current flowing through it. The base unit is the henry (H).
Inductance is the fundamental property of inductors (also called chokes or coils). Along with capacitors and resistors, inductors are one of the three passive linear components that make up electronic circuits. They are crucial for filtering, energy storage, and in resonant circuits.
Tips & Features
- The Henry (H): The henry is the SI unit of inductance. It is defined as the inductance of a circuit in which a change of current of one ampere per second results in an electromotive force of one volt.
- Practical Units: Similar to the farad, the henry is a relatively large unit for many applications. Most common inductors are specified in millihenrys (mH) and microhenrys (µH).
- Energy Storage: Inductors store energy in a magnetic field when current flows through them. This property is key to their use in power supplies and DC-DC converters.
