Theory :
In a series resonance circuit, the resonance condition occurs when the inductive reactance of the circuit becomes equal to the capacitive reactance. In this condition, the circuit
current is in phase with applied voltage. The series RLC circuit at resonance is called a series resonance circuit.
A typical series resonance circuit is depicted in the following figure.
In this circuit, the voltage across the inductor and capacitor is equal, i.e.
In a series RLC circuit, the resonance occurs at a specific frequency, called resonance frequency (fr). The resonance frequency is a value of the
supply frequency at which the inductive reactance becomes equal to the capacitive reactance.
At resonance frequency,
Where XL is the inductive reactance, and XC is the capacitive reactance. At

the resonant conditions, the reactance of the inductor and capacitor becomes
equal.
The series resonance circuit is widely used in various electronic applications like tuning circuits of radios, TVs, etc.
The voltage equation can be described from the above-given RLC circuit. To obtain the voltage equation of the series RLC circuit, let’s apply KVL to the circuit,
we get,
If I is the current flowing through the circuit, then
Therefore, the voltage equation can be written as
Also, the reactance XL and XC are given by,
Therefore,
Hence, the above equation is in the form of V = IZ, where Z is called the impedance of the circuit, i.e.
PARALLEL RESONANCE :
In any alternating current electric circuit, resonance is defined as a condition when the supply frequency does not create any phase difference between the
voltage and current, and the circuit acts as a purely resistive circuit even in the presence of reactive elements in the circuit.
A parallel RLC circuit in which the supply current remains in phase with the supply voltage is called a parallel resonance circuit. The circuit is depicted in the
following figure.In this circuit, a resistor R, an inductor L, and a capacitor C are connected in parallel across an AC source V.
This circuit will be said to have parallel resonance when the phase difference between the supply voltage and current is zero. At resonance conditions, the
inductor and capacitor draw out-of-phase current from the supply source, and thus, the net reactive current is zero, and only resistive current flows in the
circuit; and the energy circulation will be between the two reactive elements.
Applying KCL to this parallel RLC circuit, we get,
Also, according to Ohm’s law,

Where,
It is called the admittance of the above-given parallel RLC circuit. Now, let us determine different electrical quantities at parallel resonance.
Condition of Parallel Resonance
The resonance occurs when the net reactance of the reactive components becomes zero, i.e.,
