He wont tell T_T

Are you saying that he hasn't taught the class any resonant frequency formulas?

 

@audioguru, this is exactly why there was a thread started about you in off topic...

nope...can you suggest a good book that I can refer to?thanks

Perhaps you will find some facts and formulas useful?

What are you referring to?

Edit: Never mind.... It must have been the gardening thing. In retrospect, I'm sure AG regrets that remark... I hope!

Take a look here.

how to calculate for the values of all the passive elements?

Question Editted

 

Did you understand the resonant frequency formulas in the AAC link I gave you?

yes i do understand that

Good, so let's try this. With the value of L1 shown in the schematic solve for C1 and C2. f = 1Mhz

 

Good, so let's try this. With the value of L1 shown in the schematic solve for C1 and C2. f = 1Mhz

answer:
Ct = C1 + C2
f = 1/2pi*sqrt(LCt)
1MHz = 1/2pi*sqrt(350uH*Ct)
Ct = 72.3pF

I'm not sure how to calc the capacitance of each capacitor

 

Good girl! Assume C1 and C2 are equal in value. What were you taught about capacitors in series and parallel as it relates to C total?

Hint: They follow the same convention as series and parallel resistors except inversely. In other words caps in parallel are additive, while caps in series follow the parallel resistor convention and formula.

so, what should I do next?

 

Solve for the values of C1 and C2 based on the statements I made in my last post.

C1 & C2
36.15pf each?

 

Try again.
