Find Standard Resistor and Capacitor Values January 21, 2006
This javascript calculator finds the closest standard resistor (or capacitor) value in each of the IEA series. Use this, and get rid of that tattered old standard decade resistance table taped to your cubicle and put a nice photo there instead!
| Desired Value: |
| IEA Series | Closest Value | Error |
| E6 | ||
| E12 | ||
| E24 | ||
| E48 | ||
| E96 | ||
| E192 |
Which IEA series applies to the various component types?
- E6: most capacitors, some inductors
- E12: some capacitors, 10% resistors
- E24: 5% resistors
- E48: 2% resistors
- E96: 1% resistors
- E192: 0.5%, 0.25%, 0.1% resistors
