Small Inductor Color Code Calculator

Calculate the inductance of small axial lead inductors using their color bands.

Select inductor type:

Band 1: Band 2: Band 3: Multiplier:

How to Read Small Inductors:

Start from the end where the bands are closer to the lead.
3-band: two digits + multiplier (in µH or nH).
4-band: three digits + multiplier.
Multiplier determines factor (×1, ×10, ×100…).
