Ohm's Law Calculator

Lock any 2 of voltage, current, resistance, or power — the other 2 are computed automatically.

Free & unlimitedWorks offline

Lock the values you know (2 of 4 locked)

Voltage (V)
Current (A)
Resistance (Ω)
Power (W)
Formulas used
R = V / IP = V × I

Formula reference

Voltage
V = I × R
V = P / I
V = √(P × R)
Current
I = V / R
I = P / V
I = √(P / R)
Resistance
R = V / I
R = V² / P
R = P / I²
Power
P = V × I
P = V² / R
P = I² × R

About this tool

  1. 1

    Enter two known values

    Input any two of voltage (V), current (I), resistance (R), or power (P).

  2. 2

    Calculate unknowns

    The tool instantly computes the remaining two values using Ohm's law and the power equation.

  3. 3

    Review the formulas

    See which formulas were used, with the calculation steps shown for learning purposes.

  • Double-check your units - the tool expects volts, amps, ohms, and watts. Convert milliamps to amps first (divide by 1000).
  • For AC circuits, these calculations apply to RMS values only. Complex impedance requires different formulas.
  • Use this alongside the LED resistor calculator when designing simple LED circuits.
  • Calculates voltage, current, resistance, and power from any two inputs
  • Shows all applicable Ohm's law and power formulas used
  • Unit-aware input: enter values in mA, kΩ, mW, etc.
  • Visual Ohm's law wheel/triangle diagram
  • Step-by-step calculation breakdown
  • Determining the current draw of a component given voltage and resistance
  • Calculating power dissipation to choose the right resistor wattage rating
  • Finding the voltage drop across a resistor in a circuit
  • Quick sanity checks during electronics prototyping and debugging
