Read full descriptionHide full description
The one handy app for electrical engineering calculation. This app contains not only resistor color code and capacitor code calculators but also electrical filter, attenuator, rectifier, LC oscillator, RF, PCB trace, cable, Ohm's Law, skin effect, Lumen Candela conversion, Delta Y Conversion, and many other handy calculators.
Capacitor
Easily determine capacitor values from color codes or calculate color codes from values. Supports both standard and SMD capacitors, providing quick and accurate conversions for electronics projects.
- Capacitor color code to value conversion
- Value to capacitor color code conversion
- SMD capacitor code to value conversion
- SMD value to EIA code calculation
- Supports standard and SMD capacitors

The Capacitor Converter is the perfect tool for anyone working with electronics – from hobbyists and students to professional technicians. Simply select the color bands and instantly see the corresponding capacitor value. Or enter a value and let the app calculate the correct color bands automatically. SMD capacitors are fully supported as well: enter the capacitor code → the value is calculated. Enter the value → the matching EIA code is generated. The app works completely offline, is fast, intuitive, and requires no registration. Perfect for workshops, labs, education, and DIY electronics projects. Key Features: Select color bands → instantly get the capacitor value Enter a value → automatically get the correct color bands Supports SMD capacitor codes: EIA‑3, EIA‑4, and EIA‑96 Fully offline, no registration required Ideal for electronics hobbyists, students, and professionals Clean interface and fast workflow The Capacitor Converter makes working with capacitor values easier, faster, and more reliable.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Capacitor at none against Resistor Code Calculators's shown. Resistor Code Calculators's advantage is update cadence (every 7 months vs every 40 months) and iOS requirement (13.4 vs 26.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
