C Weighting

The C-weighting curve approximately follows the 100 phon curve.


The C-weighting is described by the equation below:
where
WC = weighting to be applied, dB
f = frequency, Hz


Enter frequency and level in either dB or dB(B) to get conversion and weighting or frequency only to get weighting.

The following are tabulated standard C weighting values for the 1/3 Octave centre frequencies.
