In a circuit where the components are tuned to resonate at a higher frequency than applied, the circuit is most likely a:

  1. A a VHF/UHF amplifier
  2. B a linear amplifier
  3. C a frequency divider
  4. D a frequency multiplier

Correct answer: D — a frequency multiplier. From the official ISED question bank, verified word for word.

Why

A frequency multiplier works by using a circuit tuned to resonate at a harmonic, which is a higher multiple of the input frequency. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
