Chip power inductor is a very widely used type of inductor, and its main role in the circuit is filtering, energy storage and isolation. When you use the SMD power inductor, you will inevitably encounter some problems, so, if the SMD power inductor is broken, can it be short-circuited?In this article, we will briefly ** this problem.
Before answering this question, you need to understand how chip power inductors work. A chip power inductor is made up of windings and a magnetic core, and when current passes through the windings, a magnetic field is generated in the core. This magnetic field has an effect on other circuits in the surrounding area, enabling functions such as filtering, energy storage, and isolation.
In actual use, if the chip power inductor is broken, short-circuiting may bring some risks. Because, once the short circuit is improper, it is likely to cause a short circuit or overload of the circuit. This can cause the circuit to not function properly or even cause damage to other electronic components.
If it is found that the chip power inductor is damaged during use, it is recommended to seek professional and technical personnel to deal with it, and do not short-circuit or replace it by yourself to avoid other fault problems.
