OrCAD PSpice and Circuit Analysis

Produktinfo

Features + Benefits

• NEW - The latest software version of PSpice-Based on the evaluation software, version 9. An accompanying disk contains the evaluation version, including OrCAD Capture CIS, OrCAD PSpice A/D, OrCAD Express, and OrCAD Layout Plus. The products are fully functional, although restricted somewhat in the size of the Circuit design.

  • Allows students to work with this powerful software on their own computers. Ex.___

• NEW - Updated to OrCAD-The computer program which replaced MicroSim Schematics. Updates chapters on capture (Ch. 14), transistor circuits in schematics (Ch. 15), operational amplifies in Capture (Ch. 16), other topics in schematics (Ch. 17).

  • Provides students with the retraining they need to draw electric circuits and carry out their solutions using the latest version of the software. Ex.___

• NEW - Updated example problems-Reworked using Windows 98 and the latest available version of PSpice. Gives full explanations of the example problems-not just the abbreviated "how-to" coverage found in most other texts-including the computer-generated results.

  • Shows students how to use the software with the latest operating system. Ex.___

• NEW - Updated appendices-Reflects a wider availability of digital parts in the device libraries.

  • Exposes students to the newest parts available for use in the field. Ex.___

• Interactive-Students go through each example on the computer, produce the required input the (circuit) files, submit them to the PSpice program, then look at the output files and/or Probe to see the results.

  • Helps students appreciate the power at their disposal and the satisfaction that comes from seeing the solutions appear on their monitors and printers. Ex.___

• Dual coverage-Chs. 1-13 cover most of the topics that are included in dc and ac circuit analysis, semiconductor devices and circuits, operational amplifiers, two-port networks, and filters; Chs. 14-17 are devoted to the same topics using the tools available in Schematics or Capture.

  • Provides students with complete coverage and applications of various electronics topics. Ex.___

• Development of models-For such devices as the bipolar junction transistor, the field-effect transistor, and the operational amplifier. Clearly shows the effects of variations in circuit parameters, and shows that the models need be no more complicated than necessary for the problem at hand.

  • Helps students develop their own models for other devices, especially those where linear approximations are all that is needed. Ex.___

Backcover

This simple, easy-to-follow guide to OrCad's PSpice is designed to be accessible to anyone with a familiarity of basic electrical topics. Using a step-by-step approach, it explains everything needed to understand OrCad's PSpice and apply it in a creative way to the analysis of electric and electronic circuits and devices. Coverage begins with dc circuit analysis, proceeds with ac circuit analysis, then goes into the various topics involving semiconductors.

• Presents content in such a way that anyone who is studying or has studied the various electrical topics will be able immediately to put OrCad's PSpice to practical use.
• Gives full explanations of the example problems - not just the abbreviated "how-to" coverage found in most other texts.
• Provides more insight than other texts into the creation and use of circuit models for OrCad's PSpice.
