Introduction
The RLC Circuit board is designed to be used with a
PASCO ScienceWorkshop 700 Series Computer
Interface or 6500 Series Computer Interface to study
the behavior of resistors, inductors and capacitors in an
AC circuit. The board includes several resistors, two
capacitors, a #50 miniature screw lamp, a bi-color light
emitting diode and an air-core inductor. A 5/8" X 21/2"
steel rod (included) can be used to increase the inductance of the coil.
➤ Note: Prior to the first use, remove the bolt that
secures the coil ( Inductor ) during shipping.

Additional Equipment Required:
• ScienceWorkshop 700 Series Computer Interface
or 6500 Series Computer Interface
• Power Amplifier, (CI-6502, CI-6552)
• Banana Plug Patch Cords, PASCO Model SE-9750
or SE-9751.
➤ Note: The RLC circuit can be used with the
built-in power amplifier of the Science Workshop
750 Interface and does not require the external
Power Amplifier ( CI-6552A ) for most
experiments.

Setup Procedure:
➀ Connect the Power Amplifier to Analog Channel A
or B of the PASCO Computer Interface.
➁ Connect the output of the Power Amplifier to the
RLC Circuit with banana plug patch cords.
➂ Refer to the Power Amplifier experiments guide,
the Computer Interface experiments guide, or the
Experiment Guide diskette for specific suggestions
on using the RLC Circuit.

Replacement Parts:
Limited Warranty
PASCO scientific warrants this product to be free from
defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one
year from the date of shipment to the customer. PASCO
will repair or replace, at its option, any part of the product
which is deemed to be defective in material or workmanship. This warranty does not cover damage to the product
caused by abuse or improper use. Determination of
whether a product failure is the result of a manufacturing
defect or improper use by the customer shall be made
solely by PASCO scientific. Responsibility for the return
of equipment for warranty repair belongs to the customer.
Equipment must be properly packed to prevent damage
and shipped postage or freight prepaid. (Damage caused
by improper packing of the equipment for return shipment will not be covered by the warranty.) Shipping
costs for returning the equipment, after repair, will be
paid by PASCO scientific.
Equipment Return
Should this product have to be returned to PASCO
scientific for any reason, notify PASCO scientific by
letter or telephone BEFORE returning the product. Upon
notification, the return authorization and shipping instructions will be promptly issued.

➤ NOTE: NO EQUIPMENT WILL BE
ACCEPTED FOR RETURN WITHOUT AN
AUTHORIZATION FROM PASCO.
When returning equipment for repair, the units must be
packed properly. Carriers will not accept responsibility
for damage caused by improper packing. To be certain
the unit will not be damaged in shipment, observe the
following rules:
➀ The carton must be strong enough for the item
shipped.
➁ Make certain there are at least two inches of packing
material between any point on the apparatus and the
inside walls of the carton.
➂ Make certain that the packing material cannot shift in
the box, or become compressed, thus letting the instrument come in contact with the edge of the box.
