Im slightly confused with the terms, resistor sequence, and resistor scale? Any advice would be greatly apreciated.
Cheers
Eh, the "resistor sequence" would refer to the um, set of resistors you'd be choosing from. EG: the set that goes "100, 220, 470, 1000" is the "E3" series; the "E6" series goes uh, "100, 1something, 220, 330, 470, 680(?), 1000". The E3s have 3 values before going up to the next power of 10, the E6s have 6 values before going up to the next power of 10. Someone else could probably say it more clearly than that
You've presumably noticed already the pattern in the resistor (or capacitor even) values, anyhow.
"Resistor scale" I guess would be the order of magnitude you'd be aiming for, maybe for the total resistance, or for one resistor or the other, I dunno.
Personally, I'm not sure how useful this calculator is, seems like the most useful feature it'd have would be selecting specific values, whilst it might be nice if it could help you choose an appropriate scale of resistance for potential dividers in general, based on requirements. But maybe that's just me
