This is the brand-new Electronics Engineering ToolKit! The HIGHLY RATED and RECOMMENDED productivity app. Users say it is the BEST and MOST PRACTICAL Electronics App in the whole App Store. From an electronics enthusiast with a master's degree in Electronics Engineering. This App is for engineers, students and hobbyists and anyone interested in Electronics Engineering. The App gets CONSTANT and POWERFUL improvements! !!! This is a UNIVERSAL App - for iPhone and iPad !!! With In-App upgrade to PRO. If you don't like In-App purchases, you can also download the PRO version (red icon with PRO text) which is full PRO from the beginning without any In-App purchase. WHAT OTHER USERS ARE SAYING: “Awesome app, constant and powerful improvements” This app was worth every penny I paid for it back when I bought it years ago.
