Tuning - Adjusting the parameters and components of a circuit so that it resonates at a
particular frequency or so that the current or voltage is either maximized or minimized at a
specific point in the circuit. Note: Tuning is usually accomplished by adjusting the capacitance
or the inductance, or both, of elements that are connected to or in the circuit.
