The objectives of this interface are:

  • Drawing circuit by schematic (CAD approach);

  • Modifying parameters of elements by using an intuitive language;

  • Simulating the circuit in the selected mode of operation.

  • Presenting simulation results in a probe or in a waveform.

The steps of simulation by DSPICE

The simulation of circuits in DSPICE is based by Graphical user interface in six steps:

Step a. Add Symbol in schematic

    1. Click the symbol in the components list;

    1. Click the position in the schematic;

Step b. Linking elements by wire
