Tool:        The RLC circuits shown below act as two-pole band-pass filters.

Series or parallel LC:   (resonant frequency; zL = -zC)

  (lower cutoff frequency)

  (higher cutoff frequency)

Series LC:                                            Parallel LC:

Tool:        The RLC circuits shown below act as two-pole band-reject filters.

Series or parallel LC:   (resonant frequency; zL = -zC)

  (lower cutoff frequency)
