Hello Fred,
There really isn't a short. The inductor current begins to ramp up. At
some point the switch opens and the inductor dumps its current into the
load side capacitor. "Some point" means before the inductor core
saturates. Else there will be an impressive and loud pyrotechnical show
followed by a plume of smoke and wailing fire alarms. Same if it goes
into continous current mode (CCM) and the inductor current "ratchets up"
for some reason.
I've found inductors made from 5mm Copper tubing are ideal for use during
much of the development process. (So trouble free, I've even pondered on
specifying as the final component)
An air core of that size can trigger the Federales to show up at your lab in a jiffy ;-)
Don't think so. John's in UK :-)
Well, then it would be her Majesty's guards :-)
Guard... as in shield?
I guess they don't use iron clad body armor anymore these days ;-)
