ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for tuning a balanced-to-ground resonator, the resonator including at least one radio-frequency coil, the radio-frequency coil having an inductance forming a resonant circuit in combination with a capacitor, includes two identical differential capacitors which are mechanically coupled so that their respectively capacitances, during tuning, change in a balanced-to-ground fashion. In this tuning arrangement, the dependency of the frequency error on a change of the load of the resonator is negligibly small, so that a separate step or separate circuitry for undertaking frequency correction is not needed.
