This image is prettier in a way, but the other one is easier to make sense of. I think I will replace both with my own anyway. - Omegatron 02:39, Jul 16, 2004 (UTC)

Parallel RLC schematic
I suggest we use the textbook example where all components are in parallel and driven by a current source. We can show that this is the exact dual of the series case driven by a voltage source. Any thoughts? Madhu

TODO
- Transient analysis using Laplace transform
- Step function
- Sine drive at resonance (this is interesting!) Madhu
Needs some work
There are some small things that needs to be fixed up:
- If the resonant frequency is in hertz then need to say what units are used for L an C (says lower down but should say before used).
- Alpha is used to categorize Overdamped/underdamped/critically damped but alpha is never defined (and I can't remember what the term for alpha is, the root something of the differential equation in math and the dampng something or other in electroincs, I think, it's been a while).
The hard things is that it looks too hard (though this is a matter of opinion and I don't know what to do about it). This looks to be written at the level of a 3rd year college engineering student (who has had circuits, calculus and differential equations). I'd like to try to simplify it enough to be interesting to a freshman. Like I said, I don't know if this is possible. (I need to see if I still have my text book)

I would like this better if it were log-o-rhythmic. Or if such was added side by side. I want to try my hand at making pretty gnuplot diagrams a lá Image:dba_plot.png, but someone else is free to beat me to it. - Omegatron 23:32, Mar 28, 2005 (UTC)
