Why Switch from Saturn PCB Toolkit?
Access Anywhere
No software to install or maintain. Access your PCB calculations from any computer, tablet, or smartphone with a web browser. Perfect for engineers who work across multiple devices.
Always Current
Our calculator is continuously updated with the latest IPC standards and formulas. No need to download updates or worry about running outdated software versions.
Mobile Ready
Need to check a trace width calculation while reviewing a board layout on your phone? Our responsive design works perfectly on mobile devices—Saturn PCB doesn't.
Same IPC-2221 Accuracy
Both Saturn PCB Toolkit and TraceWidthCalculator use the industry-standard IPC-2221 formulas for trace width and current capacity calculations. You'll get the same accurate results you rely on.
Our calculator implements the same equations:
- •I = k × ΔT^b × A^c for current capacity
- •Separate coefficients for internal/external layers
- •Hammerstad equations for impedance

Saturn PCB Alternative FAQ
Is this calculator as accurate as Saturn PCB Toolkit?
Yes. Both tools use the same IPC-2221 standard formulas. Our online calculator produces identical results for trace width, via current, and impedance calculations.
Do I need to create an account?
No. Our calculator is completely free with no registration required. Just open the page and start calculating immediately.
Does it work offline?
The calculator requires an internet connection. However, you can save or print your calculation results for offline reference.
Can I use this for commercial PCB designs?
Absolutely. Our calculator is free for any use—hobbyist, educational, or commercial projects. Always verify critical calculations with your PCB manufacturer.
What about the other Saturn PCB tools?
We focus on the most commonly used calculations: trace width, via current, and impedance. Additional tools like thermal analysis are planned for future releases.
Why is this free when Saturn PCB charges?
Saturn PCB Toolkit is actually also free. However, our web-based approach eliminates download/installation friction and provides cross-platform access that desktop software cannot match.
