Passive networks
Resistors, capacitors and inductors combined in series, parallel and mixed networks. Solves in both directions and ends at a standard part value.
- Series Resistance CalculatorResistors end to end. The total is the plain sum, and the same current flows through every one.
- Parallel Resistance CalculatorResistors across the same two nodes. The total is always smaller than the smallest branch.
- Mixed Series-Parallel Resistance CalculatorAny nesting of series and parallel resistor groups, reduced from the inside out.
- Series Inductance CalculatorInductors end to end, assuming no mutual coupling. Adds like resistance in series.
- Parallel Inductance CalculatorInductors across the same two nodes, assuming no mutual coupling. Reciprocal form, like resistors.
- Mixed Series-Parallel Inductance CalculatorAny nesting of series and parallel inductor groups, assuming no mutual coupling.
- Series Capacitance CalculatorCapacitors end to end. This is the reciprocal case - series capacitance is always LESS than the smallest one.
- Parallel Capacitance CalculatorCapacitors across the same two nodes. This is the additive case - parallel capacitance simply adds.
- Mixed Series-Parallel Capacitance CalculatorAny nesting of series and parallel capacitor groups. Capacitors are the dual of resistors throughout.
