DEFINITION

Classification: 324/652

Of a resonant circuit:

(under subclass 649) Subject matter including measuring or testing a circuit which contains both inductance and capacitance and is tuned to resonate at a certain frequency.

(1) Note. A resonant condition exists when an inductor and capacitor store energy and pass the same energy back and forth. The rate at which this occurs is called the resonant frequency. At the resonant frequency the circuit is neither inductive nor capacitive, but acts as a large value of resistance.
