For use with High-Speed Signal Propagation:Advanced Black Magic
If you do not have a math spreadsheet, or do not know what that is, please read the first paragraph here.
You must have the MathCad application, version 13 or later, for these files to function. Persons needing assistance with older versions of MathCad must talk to the webmistress at: info03@sigcon.com. Good luck.
MathCad scripts
The following MathCad scripts accompany the textHigh-Speed Signal Propagation: More Black Magic. These scripts may be used to simulate long transmission structures using the frequency-domain method. This method is known as the "gold standard" for linear-system simulation against which other simulation technologies are measured.
These scripts provide incredible control over every parameter of simulation. They may be re-programmed to suit almost any need. The scripts are provided in MathCad syntax, and also in the form of .pdf files in case you want to just see the equations so you can port them to another brand of mathematical spreadsheet.
