Question 243

What is an effect of increasing Q in a series resonant circuit?

  1. Fewer components are needed for the same performance
  2. Parasitic effects are minimized
  3. Internal voltages increaseCorrect answer
  4. Phase shift can become uncontrolled

Explanation

Q is the ratio of reactance to resistance in a series circuit, so raising it means the resonant current develops a larger voltage across L and across C. Those internal voltages reach Q times the applied voltage and can exceed component ratings even when the source voltage is modest.
