This easy-to-read and follow text thoroughly and quickly introduces the reader to the SPICE simulator and its applicable integration within the marketplace. Regarded as a standard software used by the industry, SPICE was created for analysing electrical and electronic circuits. Examples of everything from passive circuits to those with active devices are provided herein.

The author carefully describes the techniques of simulating circuits and then covers the application of various SPICE commands for electrical and electronic circuits. The circuit examples cited are those commonly used in basic circuits and electronic courses.

Equally suited for professional engineers with no prior experience in this area, this text will prove beneficial especially in terms of utilizing the SPICE, PSpice, LTspice, or Multisim simulator to verify all design concepts. Comprehensive assignments and over 170 detailed figures make this book suitable for self-study and quick learning.
