How to use the Resonant Frequency Calculator

The Resonant Frequency Calculator works out your resonant frequency in an instant. Enter inductance and capacitance and the result updates as you type — it is free, needs no sign-up, and runs entirely in your browser so your figures stay private.

  1. Enter the inductance.
  2. Enter the capacitance.
  3. Read off your resonant frequency — the calculator updates automatically, with no button to press.

Formula

The Resonant Frequency Calculator uses the formula:

Resonant frequency = 1 ÷ (2 × 3.141592653589793 × √(Inductance × Capacitance))

Worked example

For example, with inductance of 0.001 H and capacitance of 0 F, the resonant frequency is 5,032.9212.

Inputs used
Inductance 0.001 H
Capacitance 0 F
Results
Resonant frequency 5,032.9212

Frequently asked questions

Use f = 1 ÷ (2π√(LC)). With 1 mH and 1 µF, the resonant frequency is about 5,033 Hz.

It is the frequency where inductive and capacitive reactances cancel, giving maximum response.

Lower inductance or capacitance to raise it; increase either to lower it.

Radio tuning, filters and oscillators all rely on LC resonance.
