I love the clean look and focused tools in this app. It has earned a spot on my first home screen...
Circuit Playground simplifies electronics reference & calculation so you can have more fun hacking, making, & building your projects! This app is designed for both iPhone and iPad.
- Decipher resistor & capacitor codes with ease
- Calculate power, resistance, current, and voltage with the Ohm's Law & Power Calc modules
- Quickly convert between decimal, hexadecimal, binary or even ASCII characters
- Calculate values for multiple resistors or capacitors in series & parallel configurations
- Store, search, and view PDF datasheets
- Access exclusive sneak peaks, deals & discounts at Adafruit Industries
All that, plus updates with additional features & enhancements - MANY NEW CALCULATORS AND TOOLS being added! Not on iOS?

We also have a paper tool :) We're excited to share this Resistor Helper you can download and make yourself. It's the newest tool in our Circuit Playground family-- when you can't get to your iPhone or iPad, use paper! One side helps you read 4-band types and the other side takes care of 5-band types. The Resistor Helper is on Thingiverse as a PDF (with Illustrator editability preserved). Designed by Adafruit with Matthew Borgatti. You can also grab the PDF on github. Use and enjoy! Tutorial also on Instructables and Make: Projects (blog here).
