You also don’t get big voltage spikes caused by back EMF, which depending on your application could be a plus or a minus. But if you need an ungainly inductor in a circuit for its phase response ...

When external current to an inductor is suddenly cut off, the inductor responds by temporarily producing a large EMF that can light a light bulb. In this way, a 6 V battery can momentarily illuminate ...

A special type of component is the integrated circuit (IC) where large numbers of transistors ... which creates light. Inductor The inductor – also called as a coil, choke or reactor – is a passive ...
