Heinz,
Given the value of Q=0.5, take any LCR circuit and arrange
the values in it so that it equates. It certainly can't ring at any
frequency. 0.5 is the value for critical damping for any filter is
it not? This is standard filter theory according to the texts I've
read on the subject.
I did not say "the circuit cannot ring at and below DC" did I? I
said "a circuit with a Q <= 0.5 can't ring".
