Inductors in Parallel

fact
When two inductors are in parallel they can be combined into a single equivalent inductor using the equation: \(L_{eq} = \frac{L_1 L_2}{L_1 + L_2}\)
fact
Combining inductors in parallel lowers the equivalent inductance.
fact
If you have many inductors in parallel a simpler equation for the equivalent inductance is: \(L_{eq} = \frac{1}{\frac{1}{L_1} + \frac{1}{L_2} + \frac{1}{L_3} + ...}\)
