Hi,
Just one question. Inductive time constant is t=L/R applies for a series LR circuit. Can this be used when thinking of a search coil?
For example, take surfmaster coil, inductance 210 microH and resistance 1,3 ohm. This gives t a value of
0,000209 / 1,3 = 0,000160769231
So it takes that many seconds to achieve 63,2% of the maximum current level.
and if we think about Surfmasterer's duty cycle, it is only 50 microseconds.
