The Easiest Way to Create Digital Waveforms in Microsoft Excel
No more manual waveform construction in Excel! Thank you Daniel Jazbec! Thank you Upwork! With Wavecel, you have arrived!

How I use it : In your PERSONAL.XLSB (Personal Macro Workbook), under Modules, create a new module and put Daniel's code (above file from GitHub) there.
In the Microsoft Excel Objects > ThisWorkbook module, add :
Option Explicit
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Application.OnKey "^%w", "PERSONAL.XLSB!createWave " 'CTRL-ALT-W to create waveform"
End Sub
You get the idea - if you already have a Workbook_Open subroutine, add this Application.OnKey line and then you're ready to rock with CTRL-ALT-W.

Input |
Type |
Effect |
|
Selection of cells in a row |
Value |
Tells the tool the max length of the output |
|
Selection of entire row |
Value |
If an M (Max, Eg M25) command now exists in the selection, it is
used to generate the specified number of cells of output, else only 10, with
"err: M" message |
|
W1 (or 2,3) |
Command |
What width of line to generate. Default : 2 |
|
M20 (M followed by number) |
Command |
Specifies number of output cells to generate when entire row
selected |
|
X |
Value |
Generate bus transition in this cell |
|
'= or '=VALUE |
Value |
Single quote because Excel doesn’t permit just starting with =
since that indicates a formula |
|
T |
Value |
Generate transition in this cell (tool figures out high-to-low
or vice-versa) |
|
T30 (T followed by number) |
Value |
Generate transition and set the width of the cell to 30 percent
of width of the logic value cells |
|
AT |
Command |
“All transitions” – after every logic cell, there will be a
transition cell |
|
AT40 (AT followed by number) |
Command |
“All transitions” and transition cells are 40% the width of
logic cells |
|
0, 1 or U |
Value |
Overrides the value of the cell. When starting, tool always
assumes first logic value is 0 unless user specifies a 1 or a U (unknown). If
a square wave is desired, just have a single command or a single 0 (because
tool currently needs at least one command or value). To generate a different
waveform, override individual cells downstream |
|
E |
Command |
If "Explicit" specified, then logic value doesn't
change from cell to cell. Rather, it retains previous value and a new value
has to be specified explicitly |
