A series RLC network (in order): a resistor, an inductor, and a capacitor Tuned circuit of a shortwave radio transmitter. This circuit does not have a discrete resistor, but all circuits have some intrinsic resistance, causing them to function as an RLC circuit.
An RLC circuit is an electrical circuit consisting of a resistor (R), an inductor (L), and a capacitor (C), connected in series or in parallel. The name of the circuit is derived from the letters that are used to denote the constituent components of this circuit, where the sequence of the components may vary from RLC.
