STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Direct Current = 2*Peak Current/pi
I_av = 2*I_m/pi
This formula uses 1 Constants, 2 Variables

Constants Used

pi - Archimedes' constant Value Taken As 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288

Variables Used

Direct Current - (Measured in Ampere) - Direct Current refers to the electrical current which only has steps and have only one direction.
Peak Current - (Measured in Ampere) - Peak Current is defined as the maximum current that flows through any transistor device.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Peak Current: 5.4 Milliampere --> 0.0054 Ampere (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

I_av = 2*I_m/pi --> 2*0.0054/pi

Direct Current = 2*Peak Current/pi
I_av = 2*I_m/pi

How does DC current work?

Direct current is fairly straightforward. DC power strictly flows in one direction. That means the electrons get pushed in from the power generator, and keep going forward through the wire until it gets to your device, does its work, then continues through the outlet to complete its circuit.

How to Calculate Average DC Current?

Average DC Current calculator uses Direct Current = 2*Peak Current/pi to calculate the Direct Current, The Average DC Current is defined as direct current (DC) which is the average of electrical current which flows consistently in one direction. The current that flows in a flashlight or another appliance running on batteries is direct current. Direct Current is denoted by I_av symbol.

How to calculate Average DC Current using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Average DC Current, enter Peak Current (I_m) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Average DC Current calculation can be explained with given input values -> 3437.747 = 2*0.0054/pi.

FAQ

What is Average DC Current?

The Average DC Current is defined as direct current (DC) which is the average of electrical current which flows consistently in one direction. The current that flows in a flashlight or another appliance running on batteries is direct current and is represented as I_av = 2*I_m/pi or Direct Current = 2*Peak Current/pi. Peak Current is defined as the maximum current that flows through any transistor device.

How to calculate Average DC Current?

The Average DC Current is defined as direct current (DC) which is the average of electrical current which flows consistently in one direction. The current that flows in a flashlight or another appliance running on batteries is direct current is calculated using Direct Current = 2*Peak Current/pi. To calculate Average DC Current, you need Peak Current (I_m). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Peak Current and hit the calculate button.
