For junior-level courses in Digital Electronics. Designed to help students perform important and relevant analysis on typical circuit configurations on the computer without the cost of the associated lab equipment this lab manual provides hands-on experience in using the virtual instruments of Electronic Workbench to simulate the operation of many typical digital circuits from basic logic gates (AND, OR, inverter) through decoders, oscillators, D/A converters, and others. It features clear, multi-step procedures supported with screen shots for each step, troubleshooting exercises, critical thinking questions, and an accompanying disk with all necessary files.

This unique and innovative laboratory manual helps users learn and understand circuit analysis concepts by using Electronic Workbench software to simulate actual laboratory experiments on a computer. Learners work with circuits drawn on the computer screen and with simulated instruments that act like actual laboratory instruments. Circuits can be modified easily with on-screen editing, and analysis results provide fast, accurate feedback. "Hands-on" in approach throughoutin both interactive experiments and a series of questions about the results of each experiment--it is more cost effective, safer, and more thorough and efficient than using hardwired experiments. This For use with any DC/AC text.

Covers advanced analyses and the creation of models and subcircuits. This book also includes coverage of transmission lines, the special elements which are used to connect components in PCBs and integrated circuits. Finally, it includes a description of Ultiboard, the tool for PCB creation from a circuit description in Multisim.

Appropriate as a supplement to op-amp and devices courses where Electronics Workbench is used. This hands-on electronics lab manual presents a variety of computer- based simulations of electronic circuitry (analog and digital) within an easy-to-learn-and-use virtual environment, using Electronics Workbench.

Multisim is now the de facto standard for circuit simulation. It is a SPICE-based circuit simulator which combines analog, discrete-time, and mixed-mode circuits. In addition, it is the only simulator which incorporates microcontroller simulation in the same environment. It also includes a tool for printed circuit board design. Advanced Circuit Simulation Using Multisim Workbench is a companion book to Circuit Analysis Using Multisim, published by Morgan & Claypool in 2011. This new book covers advanced analyses and the creation of models and subcircuits. It also includes coverage of transmission lines, the special elements which are used to connect components in PCBs and integrated circuits. Finally, it includes a description of Ultiboard, the tool for PCB creation from a circuit description in Multisim. Both books completely cover most of the important features available for a successful circuit simulation with Multisim.
