Wirely 1.5.3

Wirely 1.5.3: Readings that make sense for capacitors, inductors and transistors.

Use it in your browser — nothing to install

https://wirely-app.github.io/ — works on Chromebooks, and in Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari on any computer. It updates by itself.

Downloads (desktop app)

• Windows (64-bit): Wirely-Setup-1.5.3.exe — run it; it updates an existing Wirely. If SmartScreen warns you (the installer isn't code-signed yet), click More info → Run anyway.
• Mac (Apple Silicon): Wirely-1.5.3-mac-arm64.dmg — open it and drag Wirely into Applications, replacing the old one. The first time, right-click Wirely → Open → Open.
• Linux (x86_64): Wirely-1.5.3-x86_64.AppImage — run chmod +x Wirely-1.5.3-x86_64.AppImage, then run it.

Fixed

• Capacitors no longer show power. A capacitor charging up stores energy rather than turning it into heat, so the "mW" figure next to it was misleading. It now shows just voltage and current.
• Inductors show only the small loss in the coil, not the energy going in and out of their magnetic field.
• MOSFETs show the current that flows through them. The reading used to be the gate's (always about 0 A), so a MOSFET switching a motor looked like it was passing nothing. It now shows drain-to-source voltage and the drain current.
• NPN and PNP transistors now show collector-to-emitter voltage and the collector current, not the base's.
