EECE 2317-A Lab 1- PSPICE Simulation Fall 2023 A- Objectives. 1- Learn to use the pSpice simulation software tool for the analysis of Resistive and alternating current AC networks. B- Equipment required. 1- Software tool pSpice Student / Schematics 2- PC Computer at Lab Room and other. Memory USB stick. C- In the Lab . PSPICE Simulation. DC networks Figure 1.1 1) Voltage divider. We are going to simulate the circuit in Figure 1.1. From the Start menu, select Start/Programs/PSpice Student/Schematics to open the Schematics program. The Schematics window, shown partially in Figure 1.2, should appear. Next, we get the necessary parts (dc voltage and current sources and resistors) by selecting Get New Part from the Draw menu. Figure 1.3 shows the Parts Browser window where VDC has been typed into the Part Name field. Selecting Place & Close returns us to the Schematics window with the cursor changed to a battery symbol. Left click once to place a voltage source on the page. Right click to return the cursor to its original shape. Your Schematics page should look something like Figure 1.4. Page 1 of 12

As shown in the next Figure. Observe there is GROUND-Earth symbol 3) Put them together to look like Figure 1.1. Double click on the numerical values and labels to change their values or names. For example, the source has been labeled Vs. Some labels, such as +V1-, +V2- are inserted as text (find the Text icon). To add wiring, from the Menu select Draw /Wire which changes the cursor to a pencil icon. Page 3 of 12
EECE 2317-A Lab 1- PSPICE Simulation Fall 2023 4) You must now Save your job, other wise the simulation will not run. After you save it, run the program with Yellow icon or the Menu Analysis / Simulate. To display currents and voltages on the board, use Menu Analysis / Display Results on Schematic . You are done, current and voltages are displayed. It is interesting to look at Menu Analysis / Examine Netlist , a text file is opened showing the components’ roster, together with their connections. Always generate this file to understand better what pSpice is doing. Submit a screenshot with your names Page 4 of 12
