RLC Parallel Calculation

The frequency dependent impedance of an RLC parallel circuit.
RLC parallel discussion
Expressions for calculation
Parallel resonance
For = x10^ F = = pF
and = x10^ H = mH = microHenries
at angular frequency = x10^ rad/s,
frequency = x10^ Hz = kHz = MHz
and series resistances:
= x10^ ohms = kohms = Megohms,
= x10^ ohms = kohms = Megohms,

the impedance is

Z = x10^ ohms = kohms = Megohms

at phase = degrees.
The resonant condition is
Using the series resonant frequency
Angular frequency = x10^ rad/s,
Frequency f = x10^ Hz
Z = x10^ ohms
Phase = = degrees.
Default values will be entered for unspecified parameters, but all component values can be changed. Click outside the box after entering data to initiate the calculation.
