Calculate output voltage, current, and power in voltage divider circuits. Supports multiple resistor configurations and provides detailed analysis.
A voltage divider is a simple circuit that produces an output voltage that is a fraction of its input voltage. It consists of two or more resistors connected in series.
The output voltage is calculated using the formula: Vout = Vin × (R2 / (R1 + R2)), where R1 is the upper resistor and R2 is the lower resistor.
Voltage dividers are used in sensor circuits, reference voltage generation, level shifting, and as part of more complex electronic circuits.
Choose resistor values that provide the desired voltage ratio while considering power dissipation, current draw, and tolerance requirements.
