"Good Vibrations"
Upal Segupta, Staff Applications Engineer
Texas Instruments
The word “resonance” has always been interesting to me, even when I couldn’t provide an accurate definition of it. There are so many different meanings, most of which have some connection to each other. As an electrical engineer, my first reaction at hearing the word now is to think of a tuned LC circuit.
