About

Voltage Divider

This engineering utility calculates unknown values in a voltage divider circuit. It can solve for voltages or resistor values, displaying ideal and actual resistor options. It also shows current, power, and voltage tolerance.

Highlights
  • Solves for Vin, Vout, R1, or R2
  • Resistor picker with actual values
  • Displays ideal resistor value
  • Calculates voltage tolerance
  • Shows current and power consumption
Features
Read full description

A handy engineering utility that solves for voltages or resistor values in a common voltage divider circuit. Enter three terms (out of Vin, Vout, R1 or R2) and this app will solve for the fourth term automatically. The resistor picker will only let you pick from actual resistor values that exist. It's a great time saving tool for quickly selecting resistor values in a switching power supply design or any other circuit that incorporates a voltage divider. When solving for a voltage, select two resistor values and one of the voltages. The remaining voltage will be displayed automatically. The max and min possible voltages will also be displayed based on the resistor tolerances. The current and power through the divider will be displayed at the bottom of the screen. When solving for a resistor value, select two voltages and one resistor value. The remaining resistor value will be displayed in yellow. This is an ideal value. Use the resistor picker to select an actual resistor value close to that ideal value. You can then tell the app to solve for Vin or Vout to see if the resulting voltage meets your design requirements.

Capacitor Calculator is an all-in-one toolkit for students, hobbyists, technicians, and electrical engineers who work with capacitors every day. Whether you are designing an RC circuit, sizing a power supply, building a flash circuit, or studying electromagnetism for an exam, this app gives you fast and accurate answers together with the formulas and calculation steps behind every result. THREE CALCULATORS IN ONE APP 1. Capacitor Charge and Time Constant Enter supply voltage (V), capacitance (C), and series resistance (R) to instantly calculate: • Stored energy: E = 0.5 * C * V^2 • RC time constant: T = R * C • Charge stored: Q = C * V 2. Parallel Plate Capacitance Compute capacitance using plate area, separation distance, and relative permittivity with: C = e0 * er * A / d Perfect for understanding how geometry and dielectric materials affect capacitance. 3. Spherical Capacitor Calculate capacitance between two concentric conducting spheres using: C = 4 * pi * e0 * er * R1 * R2 / (R2 - R1) Choose from built-in dielectric materials including vacuum, air, paper, glass, mica, ceramic, polyethylene, polystyrene, Teflon, silicon, and water.
