Nintendo DS lite L2 L4 Inductor Specification
Many people have experience of Nintendo DS lite falling on the ground,and unfortunately your DS lite can not turn on ( lucky guy is rare in the earth).
Normally, it is the L2 or L4 is damaged, where isL2 L4 on motherboard and what are they actually?
Some people think, L2 or L4 is the fuse like F1 or F2 on motherboard,actually, L2 and L4 are not fuse but inductor.
An inductor or a reactor is a passive electrical component that can store energy in a magnetic field created by the electric current passing through it.
Typically An inductor is a conducting coil, wrapped around a core, that creates inductance when an alternating current flows through it. Inductors are used to impede the flow of current in a circuit. The conductor is usually thin magnet wire, and the core is usually air or steel.
the L2 L4 Inductors are used as surge protectors because they block strong current changes. Chokes are small inductors that block alternating current and are used to reduce electrical and radio interference.
So it is not Fuse and anything else,but inductor on nintendo ds lite motherboard
