Calculate Voltage Across a Component
Find the voltage drop across a resistor from current and resistance.
π‘ Ohm's law: V = I Γ R. Power adds P = V Γ I. Knowing any two lets you derive the rest β handy for sizing resistors, checking LED current, or working out heat dissipation.
Voltage Drop tips
Enter current and resistance to get the voltage dropped across that component (V = I Γ R).
In a series circuit the voltage drops add up to the supply voltage β handy for voltage dividers.
Long thin wires have resistance too; significant drop there means you need a thicker gauge.
