Here are the most common series configurations of resistors (R), inductors (L), and capacitors (C). These are the
basic forms, and all other Series combinations can be reduced to one of the following forms. For instance, if you
have three capacitors in series with two inductors in series with two resistors, you can reduce the series resistors
to a single equivalent resistor, and the same with capacitors and inductors. You will end up with the series RLC form
at the lower left. Here is amore comprehensive page for impedance and admittance formulas for RLC
combinations, and of course my
RF Cafe Espresso Workbook has a worksheet devoted to doing the calculations
for you.
