Switched-Mode Power SuppliesBuck RegulatorLimiting Inrush CurrentsSafety and HazardsAn inductor in an electrical circuit can have undesirable consequences if no safety considerations are implemented. Some common hazards related to the energy stored in inductors are as follows: 1. When an inductive circuit is completed, the inductor begins storing energy in its magnetic fields. When the same circuit is broken, the energy in the mag...See more on eepower mit [PDF]

Because capacitors and inductors can absorb and release energy, they can be useful in processing signals that vary in time. For example, they are invaluable in filtering and modifying signals with
