  2. LC circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LC_circuit

    A parallel resonant circuit provides current magnification. A parallel resonant circuit can be used as load impedance in output circuits of RF amplifiers. Due to high impedance, the gain of amplifier is maximum at resonant frequency. Both parallel and series resonant circuits are used in induction heating.

  3. RLC circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RLC_circuit

    The graph opposite shows that there is a minimum in the frequency response of the current at the resonance frequency = / when the circuit is driven by a constant voltage. On the other hand, if driven by a constant current, there would be a maximum in the voltage which would follow the same curve as the current in the series circuit.

  4. Electrical resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_resonance

    Parallel resonance or near-to-resonance circuits can be used to prevent the waste of electrical energy, which would otherwise occur while the inductor built its field or the capacitor charged and discharged. As an example, asynchronous motors waste inductive current while synchronous ones waste capacitive current.

  5. Q factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_factor

    The Q factor is a parameter that describes the resonance behavior of an underdamped harmonic oscillator (resonator). Sinusoidally driven resonators having higher Q factors resonate with greater amplitudes (at the resonant frequency) but have a smaller range of frequencies around that frequency for which they resonate; the range of frequencies for which the oscillator resonates is called the ...

  6. RC circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RC_circuit

    The parallel RC circuit is generally of less interest than the series circuit. This is largely because the output voltage V out is equal to the input voltage V in — as a result, this circuit does not act as a filter on the input signal unless fed by a current source .

  7. Resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resonance

    Electrical resonance occurs in an electric circuit at a particular resonant frequency when the impedance of the circuit is at a minimum in a series circuit or at maximum in a parallel circuit (usually when the transfer function peaks in absolute value). Resonance in circuits are used for both transmitting and receiving wireless communications ...

  8. Magnification (disambiguation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnification_(disambiguation)

    Magnification is the enlargement of an image. Magnification may also refer to: Exaggeration; Magnification, a 2001 album by the rock band Yes; Voltage magnification, of a series resonant circuit; Current magnification, of a parallel resonant circuit; Biomagnification, an increase in concentration of a substance as a food chain is climbed

  9. Tesla coil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_coil

    Two coil or double-resonant circuits: Virtually all present Tesla coils use the two coil resonant transformer, consisting of a primary winding to which current pulses are applied, and a secondary winding that produces the high voltage, invented by Tesla in 1891. The term "Tesla coil" normally refers to these circuits.
