Wikipedia

  1. choking coil

    In electronics, a choke is an inductor used to block higher-frequency alternating currents (ACs) while passing direct current (DC) and lower-frequency ACs in a circuit. A choke usually consists of a coil of insulated wire often wound on a magnetic core, although some consist of a doughnut-shaped "bead" of ferrite material strung on a wire. The choke's impedance increases with frequency. Its low electrical resistance passes both AC and DC with little power loss, but its reactance limits the amount of AC passed. The name comes from blocking—"choking"—high frequencies while passing low frequencies. It is a functional name; the name "choke" is used if an inductor is used for blocking or decoupling higher frequencies, but the component is simply called an "inductor" if used in electronic filters or tuned circuits. Inductors designed for use as chokes are usually distinguished by not having low-loss construction (high Q factor) required in inductors used in tuned circuits and filtering applications.

  1. choking coil

    A choking coil, also known as a choke or inductor, is an electrical component that restricts the flow of high frequency alternating current (AC) in a circuit while allowing low frequency or direct current (DC) to pass through. It is mainly used in electrical power distribution systems to block higher-frequency AC in a circuit while passing signals of lower frequency and direct current (DC). They store energy temporarily in a magnetic field in the coil when electric current passes through it.
