The Circuit Analysis Program (CAP) is an analysis tool for determing the
steady-state AC behaviour of electrical/electronic networks.
The network may contain resistors, capacitors, inductors, controlled cur-
rent sources (e.g. transistors, op-amps etc.) and independant current sour-
ces.

CAP was originally issued for the HP85, but has been adapted for the ST
after a lot of re-writing and testing.
Although CAP does not have the capabilies of programs like e.g. SPICE, in
small AC circuit analysis however, the output results are satisfactory and
in most cases acurate enough to predict the actual circuit behaviour.

Output can be any node voltage, branch voltage, branch current, branch
power or ratio's thereof.
Tabulated or plotted outputs are available with linear or logarithmic fre-
quency sweeps.

CAP is primary intended for electrical engineers or those who are familiar
with electrical networks and basic electrical/electronic theory.

All files belonging to CAP must be located in folder CAP, including folder
GUIDE, which contains several help-files.
Files with the extension CIR are circuit examples, which can be loaded and
analysed after frequencies and output quantities are selected and calcula-
tions have been performed.

NOTE: Hardcopy of full screen can be made by ALTERNATE+HELP.

We will offer CAP as a public domain program for non-commercial usage and
therefore assume no responsibility and shall have no liability, consequen-
tial or otherwise of any kind arising from the use of this program.
