What is a filter in electrical circuits?

Circuit that selects specific frequencies from AC signal

Components of LC resonance filter

Inductor (L) and capacitor (C) in parallel

Energy form stored in charged capacitor

Electrostatic potential energy

Energy form stored in inductor

Magnetic field energy

Formula for resonant frequency f0f_0

f0=12πLCf_0 = \frac{1}{2\pi\sqrt{LC}}

When does resonance occur in LC circuit?

When external emf matches natural frequency

Definition of bandwidth fBf_B

Frequency range where energy ≥50% of maximum

Formula for Q-factor

Q=f0fBQ = \frac{f_0}{f_B}

Characteristic of high Q-factor

Narrow bandwidth with less noise

Effect of damping on resonance peak

Reduces amplitude and broadens peak
