Transcript Integrated Circuit Emphasis

PSPICE – Windows Version
 SPICE - Simulation Program with Integrated Circuit Emphasis
 Developed by EE and Computer Science departments at UC Berkeley
 Computer-Aided circuit analysis and design tool capable of performing
several different types of analysis, including dc, ac, and transient analysis
 PSPICE is PC-SPICE, or SPICE for the personal computer, is a
comprehensive software system sold by Microsim (now a part of OrCAD)
which includes several different components
 A free evaluation copy can be ordered on CD-ROM or downloaded from
the following site:

Starting PSPICE
Schematics is a schematic
capture tool which allows a
user to describe a circuit
graphically. In addition, the
various analysis options and
other tools can be launched
from Schematics.
PSPICE for Windows
Several example circuits will be used to demonstrate how to use Schematics
and PSICE to analyze circuits.
