OrCAD PSpice and Circuit Analysis (4th Edition)

This simple, easy-to-follow guide to PSpice is designed to be accessible to anyone with a familiarity of basic electrical topics. Using a step-by-step approach, it explains everything needed to understand PSpice and apply it in a creative way to the analysis of electric and electronic circuits and devices. The focus is on the development of models (e.g., for such devices as the bipolar junction transistor, the field-effect transistor, and the operational amplifier) to help readers develop their own models for other devices, especially those where linear approximations are all that is needed. Thirteen chapters cover most of the topics that are included in dc and ac circuit analysis, semiconductor devices and circuits, operational amplifiers, two-port networks, and filters; four chapters are then devoted to the same topics using the tools available in Schematics or Capture. For anyone who wants to learn more about computer aids to circuit analysis.
