Electronics V2.8

Electronics is a shareware program. This means that you may test it free of charge.
You may also distribute it freely to others so they may try it.

Electronics is a electronic reference application with the following
features:

Color coding calculators both for resistors and capacitors.
Standard EIA rounding for resistors with E12, E24 or E96 tables.
IEC conversions for resistors(SMD) and capacitors.
Conversion between capacitor coding systems.
Misc calculations both for resistors and capacitors.
Extensive help for precisions and voltages in resistors and capacitors.
Interactive common discrete semiconductor reference.
Common connectors: Scart, Din, Jack, S-Video, XLR, ISDN, TAE, USB
Common cables/interfaces: Centronics, Rs232, X.21, V.35, RS422/RS423, Null Modem, Palm Connector,
Palm cradle connector, Palm Nullmodem and Ethernet Rj45 UTP cross cables.

Whats new in this version:
Corrected bug in resistor color coding when using , as decimal delimiter. Corrected bug in decimal handling.

Installation:
Just install the .prc file.

Usage:
Please refer to the manual for complete instructions.
