The Adafruit blog just posted a neat papercraft resistor calculator. If you haven’t yet learned the horribly offensive mnemonic for resistor color codes, now’s your chance to have a cheap and portable ...

If there’s one thing that will surely blind us, its reading resistor color bands. It doesn’t help that red looks exactly like orange, brown and black are indistinguishable, and different component ...

This is a handy resistor colour code “calculator” that doesn’t need power supply or to be installed on a PC. As you know most resistors use coloured bands in order to show their value. So basically ...

The Resistor Calculator allows PWB designers to select sheet resistivity while considering resistor size, shape, and power-handling capability. The tool helps the designer select one or more of the ...

Thanks to reader Alan Metcalfe for bringing this to Gadget Master's attention. He describes it as "a simple Mr Spock circular (resistor) calculator, to cut-out and make". The Resistor Code Calculator ...

Many times, the need arises to interface single-supply analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and comparators to real-world signals like 5 V. Of course, it's possible to condition the signal using ...

Calculate the total resistance of the circuit. Calculate the current flowing in the \({3}\Omega\) resistor. Calculate the voltage across the \({8}\Omega\) resistor. Calculate the current flowing in ...
