N nusry New Member Apr 10, 2010 #1 i have bought some inductors, 8.2nH, 3.9nH, 2.7nH these are SMD (not through hole) and very small cannot handle with hand can i buy through hole inductors (for these values)? or is there any way to operate with SMD types? because these are very very small... please help me? i don't know what to do....

In fact I think a single piece of copper wire one or two centimeters long will have a parasitic inductance higher than those values. Last edited: Apr 10, 2010
