Impedance of SeriesRLC Circuits
A series RLC circuit contains both inductance and capacitance
Since XL and XC have opposite effects on the circuit phase angle, the
total reactance (Xtot)is less than either individual reactance

Impedance of SeriesRLC Circuits
When XL>XC, the circuit is predominantly inductive, causes the total
current to lag the source voltage.
When XC> XL, the circuit is predominantly capacitive, causes the
total current to lag the source voltage.
Total reactance |XL – XC|
Total impedance for a series RLC circuit is:

out of phase with each other
Because they are 180° out of
phase, VC and VL subtract from
each other

combined is always less that the
larger individual voltage across
either element Th e v olt a g e a cr oss t h e ser ies

Series Resonance
Resonance isa condition in a series RLC circuit in which the
capacitive and inductive reactances are equal in magnitude
The result is a purely resistive impedance
The formula for series resonance is:
At the resonant frequency (f ), the reactances are equal in magnitude
and effectively cancel, leaving Z = R

Series Resonance
At theresonant frequency fr, the voltages across C and L are equal
in magnitude.
Since they are 180º out of phase with each other, they cancel,
leaving 0 V across the C,L combination (point A to point B).
The section of the circuit from A to B effectively looks like a short at
resonance (neglecting winding resistance).

Selectivity
Selectivity defines howwell a
resonant circuit responds to a
certain frequency and
discriminates against all other
frequencies
The narrower the bandwidth
steeper the slope, the greater
the selectivity
This is related to the Quality
(Q) Factor (performance) of
the inductor at resonance. A
higher Q Factor produces a
tighter bandwidth
