TerTop 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2004 For inductor, the parameter Q and DC resistance.. a) would it be preferable to be higher or lower value? what does Q means actually? Is it the same Q as Q value for capacitor? P/S: This inductor will be used in Vdc filtering if this should make a difference. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
