A tank circuit has a capacitor of 100 pF and an inductor of 100 μH. The resistance of the inductor is 5 Ω. Determine the (a) resonant frequency, (b) impedance at resonance (c) Q-factor, and (d) bandwidth.
Given L = 100 μH, C = 100 pF and R = 5Ω
(a) The resonant frequency, f_{O} =\frac{1}{2\pi \sqrt{LC} }= \frac{1}{2\pi \sqrt{100\times 10^{-6}\times 100\times 10^{-12} } }= 1592 MHz
(b) The impedance of resonance, Z_{o} =\frac{L}{CR}= \frac{100\times 10^{-6} }{100\times 10^{-12}\times 5 } = 200 K \Omega
(c) The quality factor, Q =\frac{2\pi f_{O} L}{R}= \frac{2\pi \times 1592\times 10^{3}\times 100\times 10^{-6}}{5} = 200
(d) The bandwidth, BW =\frac{f_{O} }{Q}= \frac{1592\times 10^{3} }{200} = 7.96 KHz
