Distinguish between an acceptor circuit and a rejector circuit.
Answer»
Acceptor circuit
Rejector circuit
1. An acceptor circuit is a 1. series LCR resonant circuit.
1. A rejector circuit is a parallel LC resonant circuit
2. For such a circuit with a 2. small resistance, the reson‐ ance curve has a sharp peak at the resonant frequency, i.e., at this frequency, the impedance is minimum so that the current is maximum.
2. With a small resistance of its inductor windings, the resonance curve has a sharp minimum at the resonant frequency, i.e., at this frequency, the impedance is maximum so that the current is minimum.
3. It selectively passes a signal 3. of frequency equal to the resonant frequency.
3. It selectively rejects a signal of frequency equal to the resonant frequency.
