Quick walkthrough for Smith Chart Workbench and RF metric interpretation.

Language English Korean Japanese Chinese

1. Input workflow

Use unified mode for two-column Excel paste: R X or ReGamma ImGamma
Blank line splits data into a new set
Use separate mode when R and X columns are pasted independently

2. Data type switch

Impedance mode: input is R, X in ohms and converted to Gamma with selected Z0
Gamma mode: input is direct complex reflection coefficient

3. Metrics shown

|Gamma|, phase: reflection magnitude/angle
VSWR: standing-wave ratio from |Gamma|
RL/ML: return loss and mismatch loss
Pref/Pdel: reflected and delivered power percentages
z, y, Z, Y, Rp, Xp, Q: normalized/absolute network insights

4. Chart control tips

Use set color/name controls for compare-and-review sessions
Toggle line/marker/value labels for clutter control
Use focus point selector to inspect one point deeply

5. Export

Copy chart PNG for reports and slides
Download CSV for post-analysis in Excel/Python

6. RF calculator pages

RF Calcs hub: quick entry point for dedicated RF calculators
dB / dBm / W / Vrms: convert power and voltage units with selectable impedance
Tx-line phase <-> length: convert delay/phase from cable length and velocity factor
Reactance / Resonance / Q: evaluate Xl/Xc, f0, Q, and estimated bandwidth
Tx-line power factor: estimate cable loss and delivered power from length and cable type
