Cd-rom database of passive electronic components


Lightly used CD-ROM database of resistors, capacitors, inductors and RCL networks, in flip-top plastic storage box. Sold for $3000 when new.
Used in a RF Microwave engineering facility in the past. Consists of approximately 83 CDs and storage case. I sampled several CDs and the disks looked good. This was used in a clean, professional engineering environment.
The following I grabbed from research off of the web.
IHS, Inc. has announced ReCaL, a database of passive electronic components including resistors, capacitors, inductors and RCL networks. ReCaL is designed to address the needs of those involved in electronic design, component engineering, purchasing, specification and maintenance.
Information from over 280 manufacturers specializing in capacitors and resistors and over 230 manufacturers of inductors is included. With over 1.1 million devices, ReCaL is the largest, most complete database of its kind.
ReCaL's unique organization is analogous to a library of parametrically searchable data books, providing access to unabridged manufacturers' datasheets.
The ReCaL/z Passive Component Database, a CD-ROM collection of resistors,
capacitors, inductors, and networks, is now available for Windows and offers
parametric searching. The software incorporates standard Windows features such
as window resizing and mouse support. Parametric searching allows the user to
locate devices by characteristics like connection type, capacitance, working
voltage, temperature range, and military style or specification. (From
