There are two different types of reactance: Inductive (X
L
) and
Capacitive (X
C
). It can be defined as follows:
Also, there are quality factor (Q) and the dissipation factor (D) that
need to be discussed. For component, the quality factor serves as a
measure of the reactance purity. In the real world, there is always
