"This book uses a top-down approach to introduce readers to the SPICE simulator. It begins by describing techniques for simulating circuits, then presents the various SPICE and OrCAD commands and their applications to electrical and electronic circuits. Lavishly illustrated, this new edition includes even more hands-on exercises, suggestions, sample problems, and circuit models of actual devices. It is an ideal supplement for courses in electric or electronic circuitry and is also a solid professional reference."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Anyone involved in circuit design that needs the practical know-how it takes to design a successful circuit or product, will find this practical guide to using Capture-PSpice (written by a former Cadence PSpice expert for Europe) an essential book. The text delivers step-by-step guidance on using Capture-PSpice to help professionals produce reliable, effective designs. Readers will learn how to get up and running quickly and efficiently with industry standard software and in sufficient detail to enable building upon personal experience to avoid common errors and pit-falls. This book is of great benefit to professional electronics design engineers, advanced amateur electronics designers, electronic engineering students and academic staff looking for a book with a real-world design outlook. Provides both a comprehensive user guide, and a detailed overview of simulation Each chapter has worked and ready to try sample designs and provides a wide range of to-do exercises Core skills are developed using a running case study circuit Covers Capture and PSpice together for the first time.

Software tools applied to circuit analysis and design are rapidly evolving, enabling students to move beyond the time-consuming, math-intensive methods of traditional circuit instruction. By incorporating MATLAB 7.0 and PSpice 10.0, alongside systematic use of the Laplace transform, Yang and Lee help readers rapidly gain an intuitive understanding of circuit concepts. Unified scheme using the Laplace transform accelerates comprehension Focuses on interpreting solutions and evaluating design results, not laborious computation Most examples illustrated with MATLAB analyses and PSpice simulations Downloadable programs available for hands-on practice Over 130 problems to reinforce and extend conceptual understanding Includes expanded coverage of key areas such as: Positive feedback OP Amp circuits Nonlinear resistor circuit analysis Real world 555 timer circuit examples Power factor correction programs Three-phase AC power system analysis Two-port parameter conversion Based on decades of teaching electrical engineering students, Yang and Lee have written this text for a full course in circuit theory or circuit analysis. Researchers and engineers without extensive electrical engineering backgrounds will also find this book a helpful introduction to circuit systems.

Used collectively, PSPICE and MATLAB are unsurpassed for circuit modeling and data analysis. PSPICE can perform DC, AC, transient, Fourier, temperature, and Monte Carlo analysis of electronic circuits with device models and subsystem subcircuits. MATLAB can then carry out calculations of device parameters, curve fitting, numerical integration, nume
