Electronic vs AetherRF Lite

Electronic Toolbox 2 – The classic, re‑imagined Since 2009, Electronic Toolbox has been one of the most comprehensive electronics references and toolboxes on the App Store—for professionals, students, makers, HAMs, and hobby engineers. With Electronic Toolbox 2, a fully modernized new edition arrives: familiar in structure, up to date technologically, and consistently evolved. # The best and most complete electronics app—now for iPhone, iPad & Mac Over 70 tools, tables, and references—from “A” like ASCII table to “Z” like Zener diode calculation: Everything you need in the lab, workshop, or lecture hall, in one place. • Universal app: One purchase—three platforms (iPhone, iPad, Mac) • iCloud sync: All settings and favorites automatically on all devices • Multi‑window support: Use multiple tools in parallel—ideal for comparisons • PDF export: Save, document, or share results • Pinned tools: Keep important tools always at hand • Interactive tools: New visualizations, e.g., in the Battery Charge tool • Modern UI with Dark Mode: Redesigned, clearly structured, and easy to read # Proven foundation, familiar workflow Electronic Toolbox 2 stays true to its heritage—all known tools are included and have been carefully revised. From calculators to reference data: nothing is missing, much is better. Examples: • Resistor color code and coil calculator • NE555 and heatsink calculation • Conversion and unit tools (HEX, AWG, frequency, and more) • Parametric component search with datasheets • Tables for batteries, drill sizes, IC pinouts, packages, and more • References for boards like Raspberry Pi, Arduino, BeagleBone, Nano Pi … • Global search across all tools • Fully usable offline • No ads, no in‑app purchases # Continuously improved—since 2009 Electronic Toolbox has been maintained and improved with passion for over a decade. With version 2, we carry this legacy forward—on a new technical foundation for the years ahead. Feedback from the community remains central: every suggestion helps make the toolbox even better. # Gentle transition The original Electronic‑Toolbox Pro remains fully usable—existing workflows are not interrupted. Existing customers can switch to the new version via a discounted bundle. Features like the Circuit Editor or Projects will initially remain exclusive to Electronic‑Toolbox Pro and are not yet included in this new edition. # From the developer Jan Roskosch built Electronic Toolbox 2 together with his father Marcus Roskosch, the developer of the original app. A modern realization of a classic—with the same passion for electronics, precision, and quality. # At a glance • Completely new, modern interface • All known tools from the original app included • Universal app for iPhone, iPad, and Mac • iCloud synchronization • PDF export & multi‑window support • Fully usable offline • No ads, no in‑app purchases ----- Electronic Toolbox 2—the future of the electronic toolbox. Continued with passion. Built for you.

Aether Lite is an RF and Microwave engineering suite for professionals, students, and enthusiasts. Explore the full RF design workflow — from system link budgets to impedance matching — at no cost. Aether Lite limits the number of blocks in a budget to 3 and the number of budgets in a project to 2. A full-featured version (Aether) without these limitations is also available. System Budget Calculator: • Cascade Analysis: Chain amplifiers, mixers, filters, and attenuators to compute system Noise Figure, Gain, IP3, and P1dB. • Link Budget: Calculate received power, SNR, and link margin for wireless systems. • Export cascade diagrams as PDF, SVG or draw.io. Filter Designer (limited edition, max 3rd order): • Filter Synthesis: Butterworth and Chebyshev responses. • Filter Classes: Low Pass, High Pass and Band Pass. • Passive LC ladder implementation with frequency and component scaling. • S-parameter simulation with magnitude, phase/delay, and schematic views. IQ Simulator: • Signal Generator: Create CW, two-tone, and Gaussian noise signals, or load IQ data files. • Spectrum, IQ waveforms and constellation visualization. Smith Chart Designer (lite version): • Interactive Smith Chart with schematic editor. • L, C, R, Transmission Lines, and S2P blocks. • Amplifier Design with Gain and Stability Circles. • Frequency sweep and Monte Carlo analysis. Data Explorer: • Import Touchstone (.sNp) files. • Cartesian, Polar, and Smith Chart visualizations. • Marker system and snapshot comparison. Analytical & Transmission Line Tools: • Closed-form models for common transmission line geometries. • Resonator and Attenuator Designers. Export & Share: • PDF reports, PNG/SVG screenshots, draw.io diagrams, Touchstone files. Upgrade to Aether for the full feature set: • No limitations on number of blocks in a budget or budgets in a project • Advanced filter types: Elliptic, Legendre-Papoulis, higher-order synthesis • Trace Designer: Full 2D BEM solver for PCB transmission lines For support or feature requests, please contact us.
