of many electronic devices. In this project, we will explore the basics of AC
current, including its properties, applications, and engineering considerations.
The objective of this project is to provide a comprehensive overview of AC
current, and to help readers understand its principles and applications. We will
begin by defining AC current and its fundamental properties, including the

transmission and distribution, electric motors and generators, and electronic
devices.
In addition to exploring the basic principles of AC current, we will also
consider some of the engineering challenges associated with AC power systems.
These challenges include voltage regulation, power factor correction, and
harmonic distortion. We will discuss how these issues are addressed in practice,
and explore some of the technologies and techniques used to optimize AC
power systems.
Finally, we will examine some of the future trends and developments in AC
current technology, including the increasing use of renewable energy sources,
the development of smart grids, and the adoption of advanced control and

An LCR circuit is an electronic circuit that consists of an inductor (L), a
capacitor (C), and a resistor (R) connected in series or parallel. The name LCR
comes from the first letter of each component. An LCR circuit can be used for a
variety of applications, such as filtering, tuning, oscillation, and resonance. The
behavior of an LCR circuit is characterized by the interaction between the
inductor, capacitor, and resistor, which determines the circuit's impedance,
resonant frequency, and frequency response. The design and analysis of LCR

while in wireless networks, they are used to transmit and receive signals.
[13]
TYPES OF L.C.R CIRCUIT:
There are different types of LCR circuits based on their configuration and mode
of operation. Here are some common types of LCR circuits:
1. Series LCR Circuit: This circuit consists of a resistor, an inductor, and a
capacitor connected in series. The voltage across each component is the
same, while the current flowing through each component is different.
2. Parallel LCR Circuit: This circuit consists of a resistor, an inductor, and
a capacitor connected in parallel. The current flowing through each
component is the same, while the voltage across each component is
different.
3. Resonant LCR Circuit: This circuit is designed to operate at a specific
frequency, known as the resonant frequency. It consists of an inductor
and a capacitor connected in series or parallel, with a resistor connected in
parallel or series. The resonant frequency can be calculated using the
values of the inductance, capacitance, and resistance.
4. Tuned LCR Circuit: This circuit is similar to the resonant circuit but is
designed to be tuned to a specific frequency range by adjusting the
values of the inductor and capacitor. This circuit is used in radio and
TV receivers to select and amplify the desired frequency signal.
5. Switched LCR Circuit: This circuit is used in switching power supplies
and voltage regulators. It consists of an inductor, a capacitor, and a
switch that turns on and off at a high frequency. The inductor and
capacitor store and release energy to regulate the output voltage.
6. Active LCR Circuit: This circuit uses an active component such as an
operational amplifier (Op-Amp) to amplify or filter the input signal. It
consists of an LCR network connected to an Op-Amp, which provides a
high gain and low output impedance.
7. Balanced LCR Circuit: This circuit is designed to measure the unknown
impedance of a component accurately. It consists of a known LCR
network and an unknown component connected in series. The balanced
condition is achieved when the impedance of the unknown component is
equal to the impedance of the LCR network.
[14]
8. Unbalanced LCR Circuit: This circuit is used in audio equipment to
balance the output signal. It consists of an inductor, a capacitor, and a
resistor connected in series, with the output taken across the resistor.
The values of the components are chosen to achieve the desired
frequency response.
9. Inductive LCR Circuit: This circuit consists of an inductor connected
in series with a resistor and a capacitor. The impedance of the circuit
is mainly determined by the inductor, and the circuit is used to filter
out high-frequency signals.
10.Capacitive LCR Circuit: This circuit consists of a capacitor connected
in series with a resistor and an inductor. The impedance of the circuit is
mainly determined by the capacitor, and the circuit is used to filter out
low-frequency signals.

EXPERIMENT
Aim: - To study the frequency response and to find resonant frequencies of LCR
series and parallel circuits. Also to find the quality factor and band width in LCR
series circuit.
Formula: -
Series L-C-R: - when the resistor R, inductor L and capacitor C are connected in
series with a source of emf E, the circuit is called as the series resonant or series
tuned circuit (figure-1). This is an acceptor circuit that means it allows maximum
current to flow through it at a particular (resonant) frequency and at all other
frequencies it allows less current.
In A.C. circuits the voltage and the current are usually out of phase. Across
the inductor, the current lags behind the voltage by 900, whereas across the
capacitor, the current leads the voltage by 900. But across the resistor the voltage
and current both are in phase.
[16]
Under certain conditions, the voltage and current are in phase, even though the
circuit consists of L, C and R and the circuit behaves as a pure resistor. This
phenomenon is called resonance. This occurs at a single frequency known as
resonant frequency. At this frequency the capacitive reactance ( Xc = 1/ωC) and
the inductive reactance( XL = ωL) are equal and opposite in direction. So they
get cancelled each other and only resistance acts.
[17]
L-C-R parallel: - Parallel resonant circuit (figure-2) is one in which one
branch consists of an inductor L with associated resistor R and the other branch
consists of a capacitor C. This is a rejector circuit that means it rejects the
current or allows minimum current to flow through it, at a particular (anti-
resonant) frequency and it allows more current at all other frequencies. So the
circuit is not selective. But it is highly selective when energized from a high
impedance generator.
[18]
Procedure:-
1. For LCR series, the circuit is connected as shown in the figure-1.The source
resistance and the series resistance should be small. The output voltage of the
signal generator is adjusted to be around 5V. The frequency of the signal
generator is changed in steps and the corresponding current values are noted from
the a.c. milli- ammeter. The readings are tabulated. The current values increase
with the increase of frequency, up to the resonant frequency, further increase of
frequency causes the decrease of current. The L, C and R values are noted to
calculate the resonant frequency f0 and Q-factor, using the above formulae.
Note: - The experiment may be repeated with a different values of ‘R’. Here the
fo value is unchanged, but Q- factor value is changed.
2. For L-C-R parallel, the circuit is connected as shown in the figure-2. The
frequency of the signal generator is changed in steps and the corresponding
current values are noted from the a.c. milli- ammeter. The readings are tabulated.
But here, the current values decrease with the increase of frequency up to the anti-
resonant frequency, further increase of frequency causes the increase of current.
The anti- resonant frequency fo is noted corresponding to the minimum current in
the circuit.
[19]

Precautions:-
1) The internal resistance of the source and series resistance should be small.
2) Before going to the experiment the resonant frequency should be calculated
from L and C values so that to select the range of frequencies for observation.
