AI Thread Summary
Software options for solving electrical circuits include SPICE and Multisim, which are popular among engineers. Various circuit simulation programs are available, ranging from free tools to expensive software from major companies like Cadence and Synopsys. These programs are essential for electrical engineering, enabling users to analyze circuits with components like resistors, capacitors, and transistors. Additional resources for free circuit simulation software can be found at geda.seul.org. Overall, circuit simulation software is crucial for effective electrical circuit design and analysis.

Do we have a software which solves current electricity circuits when given requisite values of resistors,capacitors...and yeah also have transistors...
Please do tell..

Do you mean like SPICE?
 
There are hundreds of circuit simulation programs. Some are free, and some are written by enormous companies (Cadence, Synopsys, etc.) and cost tens of thousands of dollars per user.

Circuit simulation programs are the bedrock -- quite literally -- of electrical engineering.

Check out http://www.geda.seul.org/ for tons of free circuit simulation programs.

Thread '3-terminal device external modeling'

Very basic question. Consider a 3-terminal device with terminals say A,B,C. Kirchhoff Current Law (KCL) and Kirchhoff Voltage Law (KVL) establish two relationships between the 3 currents entering the terminals and the 3 terminal's voltage pairs respectively. So we have 2 equations in 6 unknowns. To proceed further we need two more (independent) equations in order to solve the circuit the 3-terminal device is connected to (basically one treats such a device as an unbalanced two-port...

Thread 'Question about the voltage between two charged capacitors'

suppose you have two capacitors with a 0.1 Farad value and 12 VDC rating. label these as A and B. label the terminals of each as 1 and 2. you also have a voltmeter with a 40 volt linear range for DC. you also have a 9 volt DC power supply fed by mains. you charge each capacitor to 9 volts with terminal 1 being - (negative) and terminal 2 being + (positive). you connect the voltmeter to terminal A2 and to terminal B1. does it read any voltage? can - of one capacitor discharge + of the...

Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'

Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'

I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
