Read in  |  Print |  PDF

Overview

The NI Multisim Fundamental Circuits series presents many frequently used circuits and design topologies, essential in the understanding of electronics. These examples, for new or advanced users, provide a powerful starting point to building a library of circuits showcasing various components, designs, and the power of interactive SPICE simulation and analyses. Divided into seven chapters consisting of RLC, diode, transistor, amplifier, opamp, filter, and miscellaneous circuits, groups of circuits can be downloaded. Each circuit is documented to indicate the illustrated design concept.

Chapter 1: RLC Circuits

 

Chapter 1 provides a number of detailed and documented circuits investigating basic electronics laws and passive component designs with interactive SPICE simulation.

Intermediate Frequency Transformer
Could you please make some arrangement to make IF Transformers in Multism ?

it would be good if NI could include loudpseaker transducer models and microphone as these 2 devices are being used in many consumer products.

Excellant, thankyou.
I have been searching for a reference such as this. It convinces me NI are serious about assisting whereas others in the same area of business have trouble with even very basic assistance. This had convined me to buy. Regards, Glen Bishop

Opto devices
Opto devices such as Opto-IGBTs, Opto- Triacs, Optocouplers are hardly covered on how-to documentation or even in available models. I personally would appreciate information (for those attempting to do it alone) information on the subcircuit for the optical path between sender and receiver. Last but not least, is the a link where the latest model can be checked? Thanks in advance Steven

transformers, coupling coils
Would like to have some examples about transformers and coupling coils. Creating the right model for linear and non-linear systems. Air/iron/ferrite differences. Just the top of the iceberg, so I don't have to step into ALL of that PSPICE stuff.

Problem opening folders
What program do i need to open the ccts downloaded from the abvove mentioned document beside unzipping with winzip?

Decimal to Binary Thumbwheel Switch
Under the place command library is there such a component as a Decimal to Binary Thumbwheel Switch ? If not how would I create such a part ?
