How to differentiate and identify the pins of 3 pin inductor?
The different lengths of the pins of the 3 pin inductor are designed to identify these pins, not to indicate which pin is long or short.
1. Common anode: The common anode is the common terminal of the 3 pin inductor and is usually connected to other components. When wiring the hardware, it needs to be connected to a common point. This common point is the common anode of the 3 pin inductor.
2. Positive pole: The positive pole represents the positive pole of the 3 pin inductor. The positive terminal needs to be connected to the positive terminal of the power supply.
3. Negative pole: The negative pole represents the negative pole of the 3 pin inductor. The negative terminal needs to be connected to the negative terminal of the power supply.

In actual use, if the pins of the 3 pin inductor cannot be identified, you can distinguish them through the following methods:
1. Appearance characteristics: There is a fixed distance between the three pins of the 3 pin inductor. One pin is at a different distance from the other two pins. This pin is the common anode.
2. Use a multimeter: Use a multimeter to test the continuity of the 3 pin inductor and find out which pin is connected to the common anode. This pin is the common anode, and the other two pins are the positive and negative poles.
When connecting the 3 pin inductor, it is important to connect the position of each pin correctly. If the connection is incorrect, it may cause the circuit to not work properly or cause some safety hazards. Therefore, we should carefully study the function of each pin when using it, and connect it correctly according to the actual situation.
