EE 233 Fall 2007

Circuit Theory

SPICE information

SPICE is a computer-aided analysis program for circuit simulation. along with the textbook by Nilsson/Riedel is an introductory guide to SPICE, suitable for EE 233.

The specific version of SPICE used in the course is PSpice, whose Student Version is also freely available from Cadence / Orcad (see below). The use of PSpice (Student Version) will be taught in the quiz sections. Since there are many versions of SPICE, our department supports only the PSpice Student Version and the TAs will answer only questions for this supported version.

Full user's manuals (very large pdf files) are available at this Orcad web site: http://www.orcad.com/technical/library/analog/analog.asp. You might want to read the electronic files instead of printing since these manuals are very long (hundreds of pages).

For specific hints with regard to homework problems, see the homework web page.

All PCs in the department computer labs already have PSpice set up for students' use.


If you want to run PSpice at home on your own PC, you can install software from CD in back of PSpice Guide that comes with the text. You can also download the Student Version.
