Can we get some pictures or diagrams? --66.37.246.163 19:41, 6 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It may not be a good idea to merge the choke article with the ferrite bead article. From what I understand, a choke can consist of a ferrite bead, but it could also simply be an inductor. The difference is that a ferrite bead has a real component in addition to a reactive component at high frequencies, whereas an inductor is (theoretically) purely reactive.

I agree. However, both of these articles need cleanup. See my comment on Talk:Ferrite bead for a list of related articles. This notice has been in both pages for too long. As I don't think merging is appropriate, I'm going to remove the notice, and look for a project page appropriate for a cleanup request. --ssd 04:19, 26 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Only Radio

The article focuses on their use in radio and audio circuits. I've seen these things used in computer cables, including data and video monitors. Should the article mention non-radio/audio uses? 206.53.197.12 (talk) 23:27, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
