Ever wonder what the color bands on resistors mean? This program by WorkHorse Games decodes these bands for you. You can either enter the color bands and find out the value or you can enter the value and find out the color bands. This program decodes three, four and five band resistors. The resistor in question is displayed on the screen so you can see what it is supposed to look like.
Resistor Values is an electrical engineering program that will calculate the value of a 4 band resistor. Resistor Values will determine the value of a resistor based on the color bands or the reverse, it can display the color bands of a resistance value entered by the user.
For an electronics novice it is sometimes a burden to find the value for a resistor in a circuit or in a storage drawer. Use RCalc to quickly determine the value. Look at the colour bands and then duplicate them on RCalc to determine the value.
Coding and decoding of color coded resistors and capacitors with 4 and 5 bands. Colors are decoded to value, tolerance and maximum working voltage (capacitors) of the component. Inversely, entering value and tolerance displays the color codings. Option to compute the resulting value of a series or parallel resistor or capacitor network with 2 or 3 components. No installation required.
