Electric Electronic Circuit and System Simulation


Electronic Circuit and System Simulation Methods

T.L. Pillage, R.A. Rohrer, C. Visweswariah

In this book do you have all the mathemetical description that you need for Electric - Electronic Circuit Analysis and for writing your own circuit simulation software.

Book Description

This comprehensive volume reveals how, using basic principles of elementary circuit analysis along with familiar numerical methods, readers can build up sophisticated electronic simulation tools capable of analyzing large, complicated circuits. The book describes in clear language an especially broad range of uses to which circuit simulation principles may be put-from running general applications, to understand why SPICE works in some cases and not in others.

Book Info

Electronic Circuits: Analysis, Simulation, and Design

The publisher, Prentice-Hall Engineering/Science/Mathematics

With comprehensive, in-depth coverage, integrated discussions of SPICE, and a strong design orientation, Malik's new text is a most thorough and forward-looking text. It features a flexible organization and dynamic coverage using algebraic hand analysis and simple models to provide a basic understanding and carefully-selected SPICE examples, and exercises to extend understanding beyond simple models. This allows meaningful coverage of important but often-neglected topics like parasitic capacitance, variations of circuit and transistor parameters with temperature, sensitivity to parameter variations, and numerical distortion analysis. Interrelationships among graphical, mathematical and circuit representations of devices are emphasized helping students to more easily integrate and retain key concepts. This text places an emphasis on design without slighting analysis. Malik's new Electronic Circuits offers the advantages of both an electrical circuit text and a primer on computer-aided circuit design.

PSpice Simulation of Power Electronics Circuits

Derek Schuurman, Raymond S. Ramshaw

Book Description

This book is aimed at advanced students and practising engineers. It provides step by step instructions in the use of MicroSim PSpice, industry-standard software that simulates power-electronics circuits. Computer-aided simulation is recognised as the most efficient method of power electronics circuit performance analysis, and is widely used in the industrial marketplace. This book presents a clear and concise guide to one of the most popular software packages. The theory is backed up by drills and exercises throughout, building up practical experience in MicroSim PSpice. The book is intended for use alongside a PC, and a free evaluation version of MicroSim PSpice will be supplied on application to Microsim Corporation. Alternatively, the author's site on the Internet can be accessed directly at http://www.ece.uwaterloo.ca/~pwr_elec and the software can be downloaded along with free circuit files, library files and zipped solutions to exercises.
