Power Electronics Calculators
5 free online calculators for engineers and makers.
Voltage Divider
Calculate voltage divider output voltage, current, Thévenin impedance, and power dissipation from Vin, R1, and R2. Ideal for bias networks and level shifting.
LED Resistor
Calculate the correct current limiting resistor for an LED. Shows exact value, nearest E24 standard, actual current, and power dissipation.
Buck Converter
Design a synchronous buck (step-down) converter: calculate duty cycle, inductor value, output capacitor, input capacitor, and theoretical efficiency.
LDO Thermal
Calculate LDO regulator power dissipation, junction temperature, thermal margin, and minimum dropout voltage for thermal design validation.
Battery Life
Estimate battery runtime for IoT and portable devices given average current draw, duty cycle, self-discharge rate, and depth-of-discharge cutoff. Suitable for LiPo, alkaline, NiMH, and coin-cell batteries.
