Impedance Calculator
The Impedance Calculator will calculate the:
- The impedance of a RLC circuit when resistance, capacitance and inductance are given
Calculation parameters: The conducting wire of circuit and material the inductor is made from, are both uniform and they have the same thickness everywhere; the source supplies AC current.
| The Impedance of the circuit is Ω [Ohm] |
| Impedance of the circuit calculation |

| Z = √R2 + 2 × π × fd × L - 1/2 × π × fd × C2 Z = √2 + 2 × × × - 1/2 × × × 2 Z = √ + - 1/2 Z = √ + - 2 Z = √ + 2 Z = √ + Z = √ Z = |
| Impedance Calculator Input Values |
| Driving frequency of the circuit (fd) Hz [Hertz] |
| Resistance of the resistor (R) Ω [Ohm] |
| Inductance of the inductor (L) H [Henry] |
| Capacitance of the capacitor (C) F [Farad] |
| Archimedes constant (π) |
Please note that the formula for each calculation along with detailed calculations are available below. As you enter the specific factors of each impedance calculation, the Impedance Calculator will automatically calculate the results and update the Physics formula elements with each element of the impedance calculation. You can then email or print this impedance calculation as required for later use.
