Comments by "z08840" (@z08840) on "What is an inductor and how does it boost voltage?" video.

  1. this explanation is wrong - boost happens when switch breaks path to ground since inductor resists change in current and way with low resistance doesn't exist anymore, current is going through larger resistance path, and according to Ohm's law V=IR - more R - more V

  2. explanation on buck converter is also partially wrong - it's not only averaging - ironically, "averaging", i.e. integration is done by capacitor (frankly speaking it's one of possible interpretations) - and you are explaining inductor... there is much better explanation as loss-less voltage divider.

  3. awesome and wrong
