This App takes the uncertainty out of determining resistance values when no multimeter is at hand. Intuitively spin the color wheels to match the resistor you have laying around. It truly is that easy!
Electronic Component Codes
Quickly identify electronic component values using color codes and SMD markings. This utility supports resistors, capacitors, and inductors, offering detailed explanations and standard value charts.
- Resistor color code calculator
- SMD resistor code lookup
- Capacitor code identification
- Inductor color code guide
- E-series value charts
- Detailed help sections
