Spice v.5 Wizards
New
for B2 Spice A/D v5 is the implimentation of a New Circuit Wizard.
The idea behind the wizards is easy circuit creation. Just select
the type of circuit that you wish to create, fill in a few choices
and the rest of the work is done for you.
You
can select to place the new circuit directly into your existing
circuit or place it in to a new blank circuit to start a design.
The
idea behind the wizards is easy circuit creation, much in the
same way as MS Word has a calendar and résumé
creation wizard. For example, power supplies come in many forms
with wildly different topologies. Although they appear simple
enough, they imply a complex array of design headaches: what
transformer winding ratio is needed, what are capacitors
values, which diodes? Furthermore, using a raw DC power supply
with a voltage regulator brings many added calculations, such
as drop out voltages. Fortunately, the power supply wizard makes
it easy to plop a power supply right into an existing B2 A/D
Spice circuit.
