Partial Inductance

Posted on Edited on In

Loop Inductance is the sum of partial self-inductance and partial-mutual inductance

Current Return Path

Current return paths are frequency dependent \(Z = R +j\omega L\)

  • Low frequency
    • \(R\) dominates - current use as many returns as possible to have parallel resistances
  • High frequency
    • \(j\omega L\)​ dominates - current use the closest possible return path to form the smallest possible loop inductance
  • Very high frequency
    • The current would be confined to the nearest possible return only at ultra-high frequencies (skin effect)

proximity effect & skin effect

  • Skin effect concentrates current near the surface of a single conductor, while proximity effect concentrates current in specific regions of multiple conductors due to their interaction
  • Skin effect is caused by the conductor's own magnetic field, while proximity effect is caused by the magnetic field of a nearby conductor

proximity effect is a redistribution of electric current occurring in nearby parallel electrical conductors carrying alternating current (AC), caused by magnetic effects (eddy currents)

skin effect is the tendency of AC current flow near the surface (or "skin") of a conductor, rather than throughout its cross-section, due to the magnetic field generated by the current itself

Cause of skin effect

A main current \(I\) flowing through a conductor induces a magnetic field \(H\). If the current increases, as in this figure, the resulting increase in \(H\) induces separate, circulating eddy currents \(I_W\) which partially cancel the current flow in the center and reinforce it near the skin

Eddy current

By Lenz's law, an eddy current creates a magnetic field that opposes the change in the magnetic field that created it, and thus eddy currents react back on the source of the magnetic field

Electromagnetic coupling

Electric field coupling (also called capacitive coupling) occurs when energy is coupled from one circuit to another through an electric field

Two circuits above a signal return plane.

Magnetic field coupling (also called inductive coupling) occurs when energy is coupled from one circuit to another through a magnetic field

Two circuits above a signal return plane

For instance

  • magnetic coupling between multiple inductors
  • capacitive coupling between multiple transmission lines
