    About the definition of resonance frequency

    Hi, I'm confused about the meaning of resonance angular frequency for an RLC series circuit. Call ##\omega_0=\sqrt { 1/LC }## and ##Q= {\omega_0 L} /R##. Then consider the admittance as transfer function $$Y(s) = \frac {1} {L} \frac {s} {s^2 + s \omega_0/Q + \omega_0^2}$$ This transfer function...

    Finding the resonant frequency of this "discriminator" demod circuit.

    This is the FM demodulation "discriminator" circuit. It is one of the simplest analog demod setups one could think of. An RF (FM) voltage signal is applied at V12 and the voltage at ' a' ' is supposed to contain the AF signal in its amplitude. The idea behind the circuit is that it resonates at...
