The companion software for the 1999 ARRL Handbook is provided here as a self-extracting .EXE file. Once extracted, setup.exe is the installation program. (Also see the Chapter 17 update.)

The printed circuit etching pattern template for "A 13.8-V, 40-A Switching Power Supply" (page 11.28) was printed in Chapter 30 of the ARRL Handbook at the wrong size. In addition, the values for R2, R6 and R36 are shown incorrectly on the schematic diagram (Fig 11.37) on page 11.30 of the Handbook. Also, the resistor labeled R7 near U2B should be labeled R31.
The correct etching pattern image and schematic diagram are included in the template package that can be downloaded downloaded (214,110 bytes) as an Adobe PDF file.
The power supply diagram on page 13.33 (figure 13.34) contains errors. Diodes D9 and D10 are drawn with reverse polarity. The corrected schematic has them drawn correctly, and can be downloaded (74,713 bytes) as an Adobe PDF file.
Chapter 17 refers to the NBMATCH program that can be downloaded from this Web site. Use of that program requires reference to a drawing that isn't included in the book. That drawing can be downloaded (57,599 bytes) as an Adobe PDF file. (This reference also appears in the Network Equations topic of the ARRL Handbook CD 3.0).
The Op Amp ICs table (pages 24.26-24.27) contains a number of drawings, all of which are incorrect. The corrected drawings can be downloaded (60,891 bytes) as an Adobe PDF file.
Additional template packages, as well as corrections to template packages, are available for download.
As mentioned on page 30.28, the following information can be downloaded for reference.
