What is the Series & Parallel Calculator?
In series, resistances add up: R = R₁ + R₂ + … In parallel, the reciprocals add: 1/R = 1/R₁ + 1/R₂ + … Type your values (you can use k and M, e.g. 4.7k, 1M) and get the equivalent resistance for both arrangements. Switch to capacitors or inductors – capacitors work the other way round.
How to use the Series & Parallel Calculator
- Choose resistors, capacitors or inductors.
- Enter values separated by commas or spaces.
- Read series and parallel totals.
Quick rule
Two equal resistors in parallel give half the value; the parallel total is always smaller than the smallest resistor.
