Overview of Atlence Resistor Viewer

Atlence Resistor Viewer is a resistor color code software that helps you calculate the value and characteristics of resistors, determine its color bands and get the standard values from series defined by the international standard IEC 60063.

Its user interface is based on the simplicity and look and feel of Windows® 8 with many options including: 4-, 5- or 6-band resistor calculator, creation of resistors as an image file, indication of the closest standard values, module to calculate power, current and voltage, feature to keep the program always on top to have it at your fingertips whenever you need it.

It is intended for electronics engineers to make them save time, but it can also be used to create circuit diagrams and learn the resistor color code: a quiz on the color code is included to evaluate your knowledge.

Get the color bands of a resistor and the standard values

You've just determined the theoretical value of a resistor and want to get the closest standard values and the color bands. In Atlence Resistor Viewer, you enter the theoretical value, the expected characteristics such as the tolerance of the real resistance and you get instant colors and a list of all the closest standard values among the different existing series.

Get the value and characteristics of a resistor

Conversely, you have a resistor and want to get its value and characteristics such as its tolerance and its temperature coefficient. In Atlence Resistor Viewer, drag the sliders of each band to select an appropriate color. The value and characteristics are instantly displayed.

Get the values of a resistor from the color of the bands

Calculate current, voltage or power (Ohm's law)

To complete a calculation (e.g. to get a theoretical value of a resistor), a module allows you to calculate current, voltage, resistance or power from the Ohm's law.

Learning the resistor color code, acquisition assessment included

A complete lesson in PDF format is included with the program. It describes how to read a resistor from the color code, gives a mnemonic way to remember the color code and includes a summary table.
A multiple choice quiz is included to check that you are familiar with the resistor color code: it allows you to test your knowledge of the resistor color code (4 and 5-band resistors).

Many customization options
