Coil Design Calculator


Brief for Coil Design Calculator:

Compute a coil for a given inductance, works well on low inductance coils with an air core, require to know the Absolute Magnetic Permiability for other cores.

There is a reference table of Absolute Magnetic Permiability for various materials at the end of page.

Fill the three requeired values, the number of turns of wire, the diammeter of coil and the length.

*GEMENI NOTE:"There is no exact diameter beyond which the formula becomes invalid. The accuracy of the formula gradually decreases as the coil diameter increases or decreases, or as the coil shape departs from a perfect cylinder."
