Excel Design Calculators
Design Tools
- Learn Excel techniques for circuit design.
- Save time with ready-to-run files.
- Copy sections / sheets for your own circuits as needed.
Excellent for hands-on EE learning!
- Change a value, predict the outcome, see what happens!
- Develop intuitition for theory and equations.
Design Notes
- Handy circuit notes.
- Learn Excel strategy: formulas, built-in functions, VBA code.
NOTE! Windows may block a macro-enabled file (*.xlsm) from running - Good Precaution! To unblock, right-click on file, select Properties - Security and then check UNBLOCK.
