Description: Animated diagram showing the operation of a tuned circuit (LC circuit), a very simple electronic circuit widely used in audio, radio and television equipment. It consists of an inductor (coil of wire, left) and a capacitor (right) connected together. Tuned circuits can store electrical energy oscillating at its resonant frequency. When the capacitor is charged with electricity and connected to the coil, the charge flows back and forth between the capacitor's plates through the coil as shown. The oscillations are shown slowed down; in an actual tuned circuit the charge oscillates back and forth hundreds of thousands to billions of times per second.
