PART1R, L, C Circuit

Experiment 18 :Serial Resonant Circuit

Theory

As in fig.1-30(a), when R, L, C elements are connected in series, the size and phase of their AC combined resistance, that is, the impedance Z, are as below.

Impedance :
 Z = R + j( omega L - 1 over omegaC )

Size :
 vert Z vert  = sqrt {R^2 + ( omegaL - 1 over omegaC )^2}

Phase :
   theta  = tan^-1 {{( omegaL - 1 over omegaC )} over R}

In L-C serial circuit, at the frequency that becomes ω0 L = 1 / ( ω0 C), Z of the circuit has the pure resistance only, and the frequency here becomes the resonant frequency. The angular frequency satisfying this condition is ω0 = 1 / LC and this ω0 is called resonant angular frequency, and the resonant frequency f0 is as below.

  f_0 = 1 over {2 pi  sqrt LC}

The relationship between resonant frequency and current is as fig.1-30(b). Here, if the current flowing at the resonant frequency f0 is “1” and the frequencies that become ±( 2) are f1,f2 then Q(quality factor) which indicates sharpness of the curve can be defined as below.

   Q = f_0 over{f_2 - f_1} = {omega _0 L} over R = 1 over {omega _0 CR}

The bigger Q is, the narrower the bandwidth becomes, and the smaller Q is, the wider the bandwidth becomes.

Experiment Process

1. In Block i of M01, connect Function Generator, oscilloscope or AC voltmeter as in fig.1-31(a).

2. Make the output of Function Generator as 20Vp-p, and change the frequency from1kHz to 10kHz by 200Hz interval to record the output voltage V in table 1-18. Find the frequency that becomes 0dB(resonant frequency) and record in table 1-18. And find the frequency that becomes -3dB, -6dB and record in the relevant column.
