Like series circuits, parallel RLC circuits (containing inductors and capacitors) are second-order with a resonant frequency. Both are affected by frequency changes. However in parallel resonance, it is the current through the circuit that reaches a minimum at resonance, not the impedance. The focus here is, how currents in each branch of the parallel LC […]

Calculating Series RLC Resonance Circuit
Here we will explore how circuits that contain resistors (R), inductors (L), and capacitors (C) respond to different frequencies. These circuits, called resonant circuits, behave differently depending on the frequency of the signal running through them. In this tutorial, we’ll focus on a specific type called a series resonant circuit. We’ll also learn how to […]
