Resistance Formula
Compute conductor resistance R and conductance G=1/R from resistivity ρ, length L and area A (wire/PCB design).
Inputs
Formula
R = ρ L / A; G = 1/R
How to use
- Fill in Resistivity ρ, Length L, Area A in the Inputs section (watch the unit on each field).
- Click Calculate; the tool evaluates the formula shown above.
- Read Resistance R, Conductance G in the results area.
Formula notesResistance R = ρ·L/A (ρ resistivity, L length, A area); temp R = R₀(1+α·ΔT).
