inductors
Magnetic field storers
Inductors are electrical components that store energy in a magnetic field when current flows through them.
They typically consist of a coil of wire, sometimes wrapped around a core.
Inductors resist changes in current, making them essential in power supplies, filters, and transformers.
The plural of inductor.
