Download Using PSPICE for Electronic Circuit Simulations: A Step-by-Step Guide for Students and more Lab Reports Electrical Circuit Analysis in PDF only on Docsity!
Purpose:
PSPICE is a computer program used to perform simulations in electronic circuits. It is a part of the Design Lab Eval8 package. It is used by students to compare theoretical and actual results in the laboratory. PSPICE simulates and displays the data in graphical form.
Procedure:
The procedure for using PSPICE is outlined below in two parts.
I. Getting Started
- Get started by clicking [Start/Programs/Applications/Design lab Eval8/Schematics]
- A window titled MicroSim Schematics will appear.
You are ready to begin drawing the circuit.
II. Drawing the circuit:
A. Getting the Parts:
The first thing that you have to do is get some or all of the parts you need. This can be done by Clicking on the 'get new parts' button, or Pressing "Control+G", or Going to "Draw" and selecting "Get New Part..."
C. Connecting the Circuit: Now that your parts are arranged well, you'll have to attach them with wires. Go up to the tool bar and Select "Draw Wire" or "Ctrl+W" or go to "Draw" and select "Wire".
Attach the other end of your wire to the next part in the circuit.
Repeat this until your circuit is completely wired. To get rid of the pencil, right click.
E. Changing the Name of the Part:
To change the name, of a part double click on the present name (V1, or R1 or whatever the part is), then a box will pop up (Edit Reference Designator). In the top window, you can type in the name you want the part to have.
G. Saving:
To save the circuit, click on the save button on the tool bar (or any other way you normally save files).
H. Simulate the circuit
