Series-fed parallel LC voltage response

ID: series-fed-parallel-lc-voltage-response

An ideal voltage source drives a series resistor feeding a parallel inductor and capacitor. In the convention, the branch voltage ratio is the title expression. It is a band-pass response with unit peak at , phase from through zero to , and half-power bandwidth . At resonance the input current vanishes while equal and opposite inductor/capacitor currents remain finite. Reactive branch-current magnitudes must be combined as phasors, not added as positive scalars.
