Comment s'appelle l'effet produit lorsque le courant RF circule près de la surface du conducteur?

  1. AL'effet piézo-électrique
  2. BL'effet de résonance
  3. CL'effet de couche
  4. DL'effet pelliculaire ("skin effect")

Correct answer: D — L'effet pelliculaire ("skin effect"). Question tirée de la banque officielle d'ISDE.

Why

At high radio frequencies, electrical current tends to crowd near the outer edge of a wire rather than flowing through its entire cross-section, a phenomenon known as the skin effect. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
