Electronics Calculators


Electronics is unfortunately related to lots of math. Included here are several electronics calculators to help take the load off your brain. Just plug in your numbers, hit "Calculate" and the page does the rest. Note that I am by no means a math whiz, and therefore have included only the most basic formulas. If for some reason you get an answer that is "NaN", "Infinity", or other such message it means that the script cannon handle the numbers you put it. These scripts work best with integer values. Unfortunately real life does not work on integers, so you may have to just copy down the formula and use an actual calculator.
