Run RC Circuit on PC or Mac

Multitask effortlessly on your PC or Mac as you try out RC Circuit, a Tools app by Peter Ho on BlueStacks.

About the App

RC Circuit is a handy calculator for anyone working with resistors, capacitors, and simple filters—whether you’re tinkering at your bench or sketching a quick design on the bus. Built by Peter Ho, this Tools app keeps the math straight and the workflow fast. Enter a couple of values, and it does the rest so you can focus on the circuit, not the formulas. Prefer a bigger screen while you plan? It also runs smoothly on BlueStacks.

App Features

  • Time Constant Made Easy: Punch in resistance and capacitance to instantly get the RC time constant (τ). No more flipping through notes or hunting calculators.

  • Charging Percentage Lookup: Curious how long it takes to hit a certain charge level? See the relationship between time constant and charging percentage without plotting a curve by hand.

  • Filter Cutoff Calculator: Quickly find the cutoff frequency for low-pass or high-pass RC filters based on your chosen resistor and capacitor values.

  • Design by Target τ: Start with the time constant you want, and the app suggests practical resistor-capacitor pairs that achieve it.

  • Design by Target Cutoff: Set your desired cutoff frequency, and get combinations of R and C that match, helping you compare options fast.

  • CSV Export for Your Notes: Save all generated combinations to a CSV file for easy sorting, sharing, or dropping into a spreadsheet later.

  • Pro Version Perks: Upgrade to remove ads and lift limits for uninterrupted number-crunching during longer design sessions.

RC Circuit by Peter Ho keeps the essentials clear and close at hand, perfect for hobbyists and electrical engineers who like getting answers without fuss.
