An LC Circuit

An LC circuit, consisting of an inductor (L) and a capacitor (C), functions as an electrical resonator that stores energy oscillating at its resonant frequency. These circuits are essential for generating or filtering signals at specific frequencies and are widely used in electronic devices, especially in radio equipment. Applications include oscillators, filters, tuners, and frequency mixers.

An LC circuit, also called a resonant circuit, tank circuit, or tuned circuit, is an electric circuit consisting of

an inductor, represented by the letter L, and a capacitor, represented by the letter C, connected
together. The circuit can act as an electrical resonator, an electrical analogue of a tuning fork, storing
energy oscillating at the circuit's resonant frequency.

LC circuits are used either for generating signals at a particular frequency, or picking out a signal at a
particular frequency from a more complex signal; this function is called a bandpass filter. They are key
components in many electronic devices, particularly radio equipment, used in circuits such as oscillators,
filters, tuners and frequency mixers.
