This lab manual outlines an experiment to determine the resonance frequency and bandwidth of an RLC series circuit. The key steps are: (1) Connect an RLC series circuit to a function generator and oscilloscope, (2) Vary the input frequency and measure the corresponding voltage and current, (3) The resonance frequency is where the current is highest, (4) Record measurements in a table and plot a graph of frequency versus current to determine the resonance frequency and bandwidth.

RLC SERIES CIRCUIT
AIM: To find resonance frequency , Bandwidth of RLC series circuit.
APPARATUS REQUIRED : Function Generator, CRO, Series Resonance kit, Connecting
Leads.
BRIEF THEORY : The ckt. is said to be in resonance if the current is in phase with the applied Voltage . Thus at Resonance, the equivalent complex impedance of the ckt. consists of only
resistance R. Since V & I are in phase, the power factor of resonant ckt. is unity.
The total impedance for the series RLC ckt. is
Z = R+j(XL -XC ) = R+j(ωL–1/ωC)
Z = R + jX
The ckt. is in resonance when X = 0, i.e
Z=R
Series resonance occurs when, XL = X C , i.e
ωL = 1/ωC
2πfrL = 1/ 2πfrC
⇒ fr2 = 1/ 4π2LC
fr = 1/ 2π(LC)1⁄2 CIRCUIT DIAGRAM: PROCEDURE:
a) Make connection as per the circuit diagram & switch ‘ON’ the supply.
b) Feed the sine wave to the I/P terminal from function generator.
c) Adjust the peak to peak voltage of sine wave to 8V (V1) & frequency to 1 KHz. .
d) Now change the I/P freq. with the help of function generator & note down the corresponding
e) Reading of Input Voltage and Current.
f) At resonance freq. current will be max.
g) Plot the graph between freq. & Current. Calculate resonance freq. & bandwidth.
