Discuss some of the applications of resonant circuits.

What will be an ideal response?


The ability of a series or parallel combination of XL or XC to produce resonance provides a number of unique applications. Resonant circuits make it possible for a radio or television receiver to tune in and receive a station at a particular frequency. The tuning circuit consists of a coil of wire in parallel with a capacitor. Parallel tuned circuits have maximum impedance at resonant frequencies. Tuned circuits are vital to a variety of types of communication equipment, from radios to radar.
