SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on using PSpice for completing Part C of an assignment involving circuit simulations. Users are advised to input resistor values and utilize the "DC sweep" option in the simulation command window to analyze voltage sources. The importance of matching simulation graphs with calculated values is emphasized, along with the suggestion to capture results using screen grabs or Cadence software. The mention of LT Spice indicates potential variations in functionality, but the core principles remain applicable.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of circuit simulation concepts
  • Familiarity with PSpice software
  • Knowledge of voltage sources and resistor configurations
  • Basic skills in graph interpretation and analysis
NEXT STEPS
  • Explore PSpice documentation for detailed simulation commands
  • Learn how to perform a DC sweep in PSpice
  • Investigate the differences between PSpice and LT Spice
  • Practice capturing simulation results using Cadence software
USEFUL FOR

Students and educators in electrical engineering, circuit designers, and anyone needing assistance with PSpice simulations for academic assignments.

You have your graph of V1 and V2 as functions of Vin. Just plug in the numbers for the resistors and point out that the graph matches the calculation (mention a couple of the points on the graph).

I have LT Spice, which may be different, but if you look in the "edit simulation command" window there might be a "DC sweep" option.

In this you can name a voltage source and choose the range of voltages you want it to sweep over.

If you have this, feed in your circuit and do a simulation and you will get a graph when you click on the points required. You can then grab this by doing a screen grab or using your Cadence program.
