Using advanced features of MS Excel, extensive cascade analysis of RF component parameters is performed. Noise power analysis, min/max tolerances, complete graphing of all parameters, and auxiliary pop-up calculators makes RF Cascade Workbook 2002 a tool you cannot afford to be without. Drop down menu navigation and error trapping on all inputs enhances the interface.


New features:

  • This workbook is totally unlocked for easy access to formulas and VBA code
  • Up to 50 components allowed. Display or hide component rows in groups of 5 using the Setup page. Hidden components are still included in cascade calculations.
  • Graphs automatically display only only unhidden components.
  • "-User-" page for custom formula cells. Create formulas that reference any cell in the rest of the workbook using standard Excel functions.
  • Version 1.02c has had it's equation references modified to match those used in RF Cascade Workbook 2003. The changes are minor, but you might want the upgrade anyway.
  • If you purchase RFCW2002 new, the User's Manual for RFCW2003 will be included at no charge  (PDF format - no hard copy).

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling 2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps while tying up your telephone line, and a nice lady's voice announced "You've Got Mail" when a new message arrived...
